This school is not for me at all. The kids there were rude and make fun of anyone and everyone for simply living at that point. The teachers never talked things out ever. One teacher even pulled in my ear. They made me feel unsafe and trapped by saying “even if you switch classes you’ll still see me” like a threat.Don’t go here it’s not safe or healthy

"From relaxing in your back yard to walking the streets to see beautiful homes and wonderful neighbors, this neighborhood is great. With easy to walk to restaurants, shops, parks, festivals, and even a zoo, you will never be without something to do. Super fast 10 minute drive to NOB, EVMS, and Downtown Norfolk makes getting around easy."

"Crime is everywhere these days. Anyone who seriously thinks that this area in unsafe needs to get out more. Diligence is the key. Security systems should be used and activated. Valuable items should not be left in the car. I live in Riverview and walk a lot around my neighborhood and Colonial Place. I have never felt unsafe. These are great neighborhoods for families and dogs."
