The principal does not tolerate bullies. I have a honor roll level student who was being bullied, and the teachers/principal handled the issue immediately. My student needed extra help with math, and the math teachers offered before school help before I could ask.

I cant agree more! to many discipline problems. Bullies rule the school if your child bahaves they are greatly ignored by teachers. Teachers are for the most part well educated themselves but not always willing to go the extra mile to help. Guidance might as well not even get paid they basically do nothing.

This school is NOT a good school in any way. I have already gone threw two other school districts with two other adult children. The school is overcrowded, the teachers overworked.
