The school work I took from the school made a challenging term based Universities homework a piece of cake to finish. Honestly, the university classes work I took were not even as hard as the material we covered in the AP classes at this school. This school's competent staff, one on one office hours supplied by the teachers, and the challenging classes here made the university courses I took a breeze for me.

It was quite the scandal for a room full of 14 year olds! How on earth was that movie rated PG??

This school fails to protect students. My freshman year I had someone next to me touching…read morethemselves and many people made multiple reports.... Went and told the teacher and she reply's with "what do you want me to do about it" talked to the vice principal Jamie flemming told me it's not sexual harassment and ignored me called police to the school after the student continued to touch himself in class and they never showed up and I was later moved next to the teacher for complaining about it. Students are targeted, they're not helped, and teachers would rather shame then try and reach out. A few of the teachers are amazing and don't deserve to put up with what they do.

If I could give this school 0 stars I would! Most definitely the rudest principal I have ever…read moreencountered. A seriously dangerous incedent happend yesterday. Involving a weapon (knife). My child said he was threatened by the kid. I (the parent) was not even notified by the school. I find out through my child crying his eyes out because he's scared to go back. I get home and call school right away. I was told there was absolutly no incedent with a knife. I confront Mr. Moebus (principal) this morning 11/9/18, come to find out I was lied to yesterday and a boy did have a knife. I Tell him my son confided in me he that he was being bullied since day 1, by multiple kids. Moebus tells me quite rudely my son dishes it out too. Hmm. Ive never been informed of my son causing any issue. 11-8-18 however my son was not the one with a knife. Moebus tells me noah was not threatened by this kid cause he reviewed the cameras . First of all those cameras have no sound so how would moebus know that my child was not verbally threatened? I do know this my kid is 11 years old, he felt threatened. I would have even felt threatened. The school had litteraly all day to inform me of incident. As this happened before school started. Oh it gets better...Moebus informs me that my son is bieng suspended today for Moebus having to spend his precious time reviewing servalence yesterday. He decides my kid is a liar and suspendes him, mind you ...again, the other child had a knife, my child had no sort of weapon. As a parent I know if any child shows up at school with any sort of weapons, I'd like to be notified what happened on my child's campus ASAP! Especially if my child is on that camera footage while a kid takes a knife out of his backpack and shows it to My child, he had no idea how to handle that situation. So yea mabey he made up a bit of a lie, getting picked on all the time plays a role mentally, no wonder some poor kids kill themselves. Bullied by the kids, thinking you would be protected by a so called principal. But getting punished instead. GOOD RIDENCE PARSONS! Oh and thanks for making him feel more worthless moebus! really spectacular leadership skills

Towers on a school LOCK DOWN was outside while I was in the classroom under the table she comes to the door struggling to get in so knowing me I got up let her in. Then she decided to not let me go to a 250 mile away field trip to San Francisco knowing I have good grades but still denied not letting me go and while I thought I was saving her life and the school board does not let the kids know if it was a drill or not that's why I let her in then. Then mrs. Tower lied and said that they did tell us it was a drill knowing that every other teacher says they can't let kids know or not. She is very rude to kids on regular days. And is unfair to kids struggling with stuff at home don't MAKE YOUR KIDS GO HERE THEY WILL COME HOME CRYING BECAUSE THE TEACHERS DONT DEAL OR HELP WITH BULLYING. Janitors do not pick up school is very dirty

I WOULD STAY CLEAR OF THIS SCHOOL AND COLUMBIA SCHOOL DISTRICT

We had a few issues were our student's teacher had "lost" Homework. And even if it is the teacher's fault the student suffers a 0 on the grade. Our student also had a fall at school and nothing was done to make the area safer. I expect more from my child's school. When I think of a good school I think of Safety and caring staff.

Like if your cool with just staying in the little social bubble of people who walk the mile then this school is the school for you. Also the education is kinda a joke, like you don't gotta try for shit if you take the regular classes, but it's kinda like that in every American school so take that as you will. So all in all this school doesn't feel like a real highschool, and it's only good for very specific people.

I know most kids are pretty excited to start school, but this school is amazing! I hear that it was in fact designed by students, it is eco-conscious​ and the focus is truly on arts and enrichment for these kids, which is so important due to the evolution of the economy heading towards creative fields. But most importantly it's essential to their positive development​ giving them the tools that they need to thrive. They make school fun again and give opportunities to so many children to explore, create and use their imaginations to make an impact in our world. So happy to have this jewel in our community!
