Most teachers are pretty awesome. Mostly the male ones are the best, but of course there are variations. There are some very stingy and outright low quality teachers though, some that not only don’t teach, but then give massive busy work on the topics they didn’t instruct. The sports area is also quite buns… the flagship is football of course, yet the team is usually pretty horrendous. Staff (principles+administrators) are also bad….their sensitivity to non-issues is quite interesting as they cancel the most important time of the days (half time), where students can have a break + go to clubs or get tutored, over slight rain or cold temperatures. Seriously what are we thinking there. All in all, its not a terrible school, and the only thing saving it are a select few teachers and the opportunities for driven students.

bad as the administration is making there own rules up different then what is to district and they are behind other schools in the district as other kids in the district have there laptops and are using them in the classes but this school refuses to let the kids use them because they don't have the cases on the laptops even though the district has gotten extra insurances from the company providing the laptops that if anything happens to them until the covers are in that they will replace them. This school and the policies it dictates to the parents and to the children are coming from the SIC and the PTO of the school and unless you are on the board of either of these too then your voice means nothing at this school.

So far 2 weeks in and the front office staff is the most unorganized group I have seen from any school.The register takes it upon herself to try and dictate legal documents with no law degree.They can't even get bus routes or teacher names to parents they have yet to connect any part of his family with their " communication app" also changing your child's contact and pick up info forget about it. The district will refer you to the office who refers you to power school which is run by the district Then the front office staff tries to dictate what a parent approves or disapproves of. Absolutely horrible experience do not recommend.
