It's a solid 5 because they could be better with stopping the bullying and actually doing something about it.

If possible 0 out of 10, really.

There were 14 fights at the school yesterday, 14!!!! This school is not at all for children who want to learn and actually make something out of themselves. My child has spent more time trying to avoid getting hit while walking to class than learning anything. She recently transferred in due to our family moving to Jacksonville. She is a smart kid and does not need to be in an environment such as this. No child should!

Overall, I'd say Landmark is a pretty good school. Despite the disadvantages there are, such as fights and bit of bullying, it's not that bad at all. In my experience in yellow team, the core class teachers do an excellent job, by giving students enough homework and thought out lessons. However, the majority of the elective teachers seem to be quite lazy. There are some who do assignments and get involved with the class here and there, but there are also some that provide little to no education. As for the fights, to be completely honest, it's just a joke. Some of these students literally fight only for attention and to seek drama. As long as you stay with the reasonable people, you will be fine. As for bullying, being a quite person, I never had any major problems. Besides a few mean remarks here and there, I have never been harassed or punished severely. If someone is being bullied, which is highly unlikely, then it's their responsibility to speak up. I can see the school is attempting to develop strong character within the students, such as giving out tickets (which can be redeemed for prizes), food trucks, holding student meetings regarding conduct, etc. it doesn't seem to effect the "bad kids", but it does give opportunity for treats for those who behave. Overall, the core teachers are excellent, homework approach is effective, real bullying is scarce, and the school is definitely trying to improve on several things, such as strong character. Overall, a great school.
