We serve an urban population with a wide range of socioeconomic levels. Our exceptional student body is comprised of 56% minority students, with 32% receiving free or reduced-priced lunch. All of our scholars possess high academic potential. Our school only offers honors, Advanced Placement and gifted courses. The students are highly motivated to become future leaders. They participate in 70+ active clubs and teams, and we realized that some organization was needed. As I have been overlooking many clubs over the years, I was named Coordinator of Student Activities for extra curricular activities, in addition to my geography teaching position. It is really exciting!
