It’s a good school just the teachers don’t listen to the parents or the students. Also they don’t punish bullying at all. It’s messed up that they say bullying isn’t allowed but they let children to bully other children and treat children like they are the “black sheep” of the classroom.

"There aren't that many families close to us the neighborhood is run down. People let their mean dogs run lose so it makes it unsafe to go for walks. There are also no sidewalks making it unsafe to go for walks. "
