I heard that this school had sponsored teachers meaning they are now legal resident of this country from being a foreign national. And I heard from a realable source from the Human Resources that they are no more sponsoring. That will be the biggest mistake that this district could make because I have 2 kids and 5 nephews and nieces who all go to this high school and they all said they were all great teachers. So what if they left? I'm sure there are more teachers who needs a sponsor who are good or better than the old ones. Please continue this sponsorship because it does help the high school and the community.

They act like its a prison for the kids. Plus teachers think their it and parents are not allowed in classrooms after a certain time and also kids get out at 2:50 and the principal locks doors at 2:30 so you cant get your child early. And if you do he has an attitude... Come on in- professional. You get a lot of rolling of eyes from teachers and principal!!! The only one that's nice there is the secretary, and nurse. They are so dis-organized and do the most expensive fund raising! And the teachers favor certain children and pick on others. If the parent does walk in you get treated really badly. I think I would rather go to a prison to visit someone...It is really bad, But it just depends who you are they seem to treat other parents with more money like kings and queens. But I truly hate this school My child will not be going there any more!!

I have had a challenging time working with the staff and administration at this school for many years. They treat the students like criminals and clearly do not understand how little they understand about various social service and mental health supports. Kids are set up at this school for a life of crime, in my humble estimation. I, myself, every time I visit the school for a work-related meeting, I find myself absolutely dreading the interaction. Post-interaction, I've felt blamed, judged, and often enraged--or probably humiliated if I wasn't so confident in my field. They are rude and immature at best. I feel so much frustration for the lack of education their staff seems to embody. There is no discipline. They have hired an entourage of security guards with cop-like, military mentalities. These are kids! Their solution to a problem, nearly across the board in my experience, is to send the kid home. There is no ISS apparently, no detention even (I have asked so many times for something like this and am told they "don't have the staff"). Just send them home. Now, if I was a teenager, I would be thrilled with that sentence!
