I messed up in high school and wasn't able to fulfill all my credits to graduate on time, but when I came here back in '99 for the AEWC program for high schoolers, I met the most wonderful teachers. They were there willing to help and pushing you to graduate with a diploma instead of just a GED. Unfortunately one of the TA's I'll never stop thanking is no longer working there, but Mr. Gray is still there and he is a patient, caring teacher that every kid whose messed up needs. Well a few years after that, I took a computer class as part of the Adult classes offered. It was great, I learned a lot and at my own pace; I learned fast and was able to apply it to the job in my field. The only thing bad about this place is that the neighborhood is sketch, it can get dangerous there especially at night, due to the population and risk factors there, unfortunately. Nothing traumatic has ever happened there, nothing serious on the news at least, but it's best to be careful if you don't know much about the streets. But I gave it 5 stars for the education part only.
