We moved to this area recently. My two kids have been excellent students since they started attending grade school. I am sad to see the discipline problems, dress code, and attitude of the staff in this school. Some teachers are very friendly and care about teaching, but others don't. The principal

We bought our house in this area because we thought this was a good school, but it is not. The school is over crowed, and the teachers overwhelmed with students. I wish I can take my taxes and pay for a private school for them to go, but I am stuck with this at least until we move. There are not fair too every student.

To the Jan. 11 student comment. First, all grades are divided into 'teams' and the education quality DOES differ from team to team no matter what the staff says.

I work for and with many of these student and some of the staff (those who let you in) organizations in school, at games, etc. very closely and my response to the student is please don't judge your peers until you've walked a mile in their shoes. It's easy to judge when you've never faced indignity or racisism. Read less
