I'm in 7th grade we are almost done with the first term it's been pretty good so far. The doors by the library are infested with some weird bug but if you just go in or out you are just fine, I go to the library every day and those are the doors I go in. I took all honors classes so it's a little more homework then the ragular classes, but almost all of your homework is something you did not finish in class.

When I went to this school, counselor wasn’t helpful. She made me feel worse than I already had felt. Teachers didn’t help out much & put you on the spot. When students bully one another, teachers didn’t report. Davis High is better.

A lot of people come to register here and are greeted with the nastiest front desk that it just ends up turning people off. I was so close to turning away (i can name 2 neighbors that did) because 4/5 encounters with the front office are not good. Recess duties sit around on their cell phones and tell kids to handle fights and scrapes on their own. We’ve been lucky enough to have really amazing teachers I’m so thankful to them. However when a child needs support or to lay down or call their parents, same problem: front desk will just send them back. They are lazy and rude. When THEY make a mistake, they will make you feel like an idiot for not checking their website every day or checking 20 different emails from the district as they do rather than just simply apologizing. For example, telling everyone to show up and then as people arrive suddenly explain really the event is two days later and as parents we should've known and should be checking the website and dozens of emails the district sends daily to actually know what’s going on and not trust the text messages we received. It doesn’t have to be that deep but it’s the way they treat people so inferior when really they should be the ones that are embarrassed. They have an no respect for people who work and could care less if they give you the runaround like when my daughter didn’t have a teacher on the first day of school and they didn’t just want to be honest about it a few years ago. They forget we pay their bills when we pay our taxes yet they’re always BEGGING SHAMELESSLY for money. Typical public school stuff sadly. In the end, the inconveniences of dealing with them sometimes is definitely worth the opportunity my kids gain from going here. I really like the last principal for the last few years I feel like he’s really supportive and very involved. Also says a lot when you have to turn off Google comments lol embarrassing for you.
