[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid is self motivated, it will be good (not great). If your kid does the bare minimum, they will be fine and not stand out--teachers and administration will be happy to let them slide. If your kid always aligns with the worst behaved kids and sinks to their level, they will struggle.[/quote] Exactly right from I’ve seen. I would only add that if your kid is self-motivated AND social or active in clubs/sports, then JR will be a great experience. Academics can be okay/mediocre to great/inspiring, so overall I think “good” is a fair overall impression. But high school is more than academics and it’s the combination of people and academics that make it a great school. I’m very happy to send my daughter there. It’s true that Principal Brown has done his best to kill the culture and spirit that define the school community. The school is a wonderful place despite him.[/quote]
