The worst year of my life was at this school, and I am almost finished with highschool now. I have been to many school districts but this one by far was the worst.

There was a time where I was sitting at lunch and the boys thought it was funny to throw food, marbles, deodorant, footballs, etc. The lunch staff was standing around and watching this and all she did was ask them twice to stop without punishing them. And they didn't stop, and when I begged her to make them stop she yelled: "Don't tell me how to do my job!" the same lunch staff lady went around telling students that I'm trying to get her fired which when I told the school this. She eventually did, thank god. when a kid threw his deodorant at me for the second time I took and refused to give it back, then the lunch staff lady told me to give it back but never punished them. I started eating in the bathroom. I went and told Mrs. Stroud, so she surprisingly gave some of the boys a couple days of detention. But wouldn't you think they would at least get a week of detention for making me want to die? They would all also call me fat, ugly, and a prostitute. And I began to not even fight back in hopes of this stopping so my last chance of peace at all was to get an adult to help of course. Most of the teachers would cuss, call me out for having ADD, and single me out in front of the whole class. Even If I did cause a ruckus, do you think appropriate behavior? I knew a poor child who had lost his mother, and the kids would bully him about it! And for the rest of the year of me being there, the bullying continued. When I moved on to a new school my math teacher was shocked with the way they tried to teach me math. She said any school program who uses the math program ALEX is signing their students up for instant failure. The program makes it easy for kids to cheat on tests and other ways without learning a drop, and it has insignificant teaching methods. Which is why I retook pre-algebra a 2nd time! There was one time where I forgot to get my phone back from the office, rushed up, but the staff lady said I can get it tomorrow. I got scared because I was about to miss my bus which was running late and I needed my phone. So the Staff lady took her sweet 10 minutes to take my phone of the drawer I stood next to, yes I missed my bus even though they promised that wouldn't happen! I ended up getting a Saturday school because the counselor advised me not to? :/ they threatened that If I told my parents the truth I would be punished further.

I was a student at this quite about 5 years ago we had just received a new vice principal who was female and very disrespectful to the students. The administration was more detrimental than beneficial to the students. There were quite a few outstanding teachers they were great, the academics were rigorous. The principal was seen every so often and never really spoke except occasionally she would yell at students breaking the rules. Students misbehave and are disrespectful . Overall I would not recommend the school and am sorry I went to it.
