My dislike the school very much. I have taken the advanced placement classes and I get bullied pretty often. The teachers rarely punish the children causing trouble and disturbing classes. The front office and the nurse is not really too good or too appealing for someone to have their child deal with. I would go to the nurse's office from injuries and I always got an unwelcome feeling from them to the point I would just suffer from the pain from the injury from the fear of the nurse and how unwelcome she made me feel. The problem with the front office was that when we had called for help from the school they either A, ignored the calls or B, they would answer and give little help as possible, as well in when you when to the school physically the office was also rushing you to get the problem making you feel unwanted and just seemed like they didn't really want to help you. An example on my harassments was that I was pushed down the stairs with also them taking down my friends as well and so I had a bruise for weeks and I didn't go to the nurse out of the fear from the nurse. The next problem was that the trouble makers at school would run around in the halls banging and slamming on the doors, walls, and lockers disturbing the classes and then also using inappropriate language and harm other students at times. The school however likes to let them "slide" while the teachers have made complaints as well with to one kid was so much of a disturbance to the point were the kid was assigned a different school for a while but that was the only punishment that was given. Overall I do not recommend this school but most of the teachers are very nice but there are semi a lot of teachers who will try to take control of the child and discriminate them.

This school has too many disrespectful students! They disrupt the classes, are defiant, and refuse to follow simple instructions. They prevent the students who want to learn from doing so. A possible solution would be for parents to support the teachers and administration: make sure your children understand that it's important to be respectful and polite to everyone. And students don't need their phones during class time. They text, watch videos, and even make and take calls during class!

My experience with this school was not good. Although I loved the principle and many of the teachers, overall, there justvis not enough staff/resource to handle the rough group of students who attend.

Terrible school. Principle is very helpful only to get you out of her hair so you will feel satisfied enough to not further bother her. Most teachers are a joke. I will not say all to be fair but a good number are lousy. Coming from a family of educators a school is only as good as the principle. She/he is the "boss" and if they are not doing their job, guess what folks, neither are the teachers, administrators and so forth.
