This school sucks. If you have a choice to transfer your kid to another school, please do so and don’t even bother. The students here are absolute garbage and treat anyone different like a waste of space. Children repeatedly make racist, homophobic and insensitive jokes about people with learning disabilities and depression. Not to mention the teachers, who don’t do anything to prevent this and the children who do get punished only get a slap on the wrist and a “stern” talking to. A lot of the teachers have no idea what they’re doing or what they’re supposed to be teaching, most of the teachers won’t help you with work and will instead threaten/and or blackmail you into doing it. I’m one of the children who sees the counselor and our counselor has enough on his hands, as there’s over 30 students who have to see him, since all of the students here act like it’s a free for all and constantly harass, bully and treat other students like garbage. I’ve got a lot of home and personal problems but those are all swept aside as I’m being tormented for being short or for the 1 day that my hair didn’t look /perfect/.

I am one of the 2017 graduates of Hille middle school and I can honestly say that I completely hated every second of it. Its not the 'Oh I hate school because i'm a kid' speaking, Its the fact you can find teachers who just don't care at all. They try to, but just cant fake it enough. I will however state that my 6th grade year was not as bad. My 8th grade year was trash, I was bullied constantly and anytime I would stand up for myself I'd get in trouble and the bullying would get worse. I've gone to both of the principals and the professional concouiler for it and all they got was a "talking to" they didn't call me in with them and sort anything out it was always "oh don't do this again." and that stupid garbage. They never got into real trouble because they were academically advanced and I wasn't, and because of them I now suffer from severe depression and anxiety. I'm what they call 'emo' no one understands its their fault I'm like this and neither do the teachers. they just don't care.
