Student Quote

I was that kid sitting in the corner, not talking to anyone. But throughout the years, they offered drama and arts courses with so many great teachers that I slowly began to get out of my shell. I made some great friends. The people you meet, teachers, counselors, and even security guards, are like family."

– Alexandra Aguilar, Class of 2022
