This school is terrible, they add on more work due to them wanting certain students. I have done nothing but try in the past 3 years and now it's like there is purposefully trying to make it impossible to graduate adding work on top of the large amount of classwork. They do this with multiple thing trying to manipulate you into dropping out it's a game for them they pick their favorites and they pass while every year they make it even harder and the corona virus pandemic is not helping in the first place, but basically the school has a horrible learning process and also they have a bad pest problem if I could give less than one star I would.
