Students have the opportuni- ty to get good grades, but it is up to them to do itfl In the 1983-84 year, at least one third of the students from each class, was listed on the school's honor roll. junior Lorren McRae commented I think students make this a good school, because they show a lot of respect for the school.Students and teachers know it is important to get a good eduction in high schoolf, However, many students com- mented that the achievement of all those individuals is possible because of help from those master teachers..
