7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis high school is truly disappointing as an educational institution. Schools are supposed to be a safe place our children go to further their education and pave the way for their future. Lastly, high school should be fun. I absolutely loved high school! Sadly, here, my nephew fears going to school each day due to being assaulted and harassed on a ridiculously regular basis. When he tries to report an incident, said incident is brushed under the rug as he is accused of exaggerating the incident he is a victim of. The educators never keep their stories straight. My nephew was suspended for almost 2 weeks on account of my nephew is the minority. I normally would not pull the race card, as in a lot of situations I feel it's used as a cop out. However, when his brother was expelled due to "behavioral issues" and comes home with weekly reports of perfect behavior from his new institution it makes you think. My nephew, who is currently suffering this staff, was stabbed with a pencil TWICE. When he tried to go to the principal to report it they said he was just poked. It has now been 2 weeks and my nephew has a scar forming. My nephew who is being suspended for 2 weeks asked the principal for space as he was made uncomfortable. My nephew was denied his space so he told him to back up. This all occurring after a teacher told him she didn't want to have to fight him earlier in the week. Of course when questioned, she tried to clean up her comment. This is NOT a school that can be trusted to SAFELY educate our youth with integrity.
