The whole 9 th grade I got bullied from girls and boys. My mother would attend school meetings report the incidents, and no one would do anything at all. The assistant principal was also against me and would not greet me in the hallway she would greet the kids who I had issues with. I also got jumped one day I reported it to the principal and assistant principal, and they took the student in the office the next day she was doing tix toc with security guard. Nothing was ever done. The guidance counselor DeJesus told me I was going to summer school just to worry me and made me sad. When my mother approached her, she stated that she never informed me this information. Everyone was against me and the facility staff as well. It was to the points where the principal told my stepfather there's something I'm doing to the students that making then treat me the way they were. I will be suing the school soon for emotional l trauma and lack of efforts to stop the bullying. Do not send your child to this school.

Teachers constantly yell at students and threaten to take recess away at every turn. The majority of students are performing below grade level so there isn't the slightest challenge to the work your child receives. Some teachers have rules to the detriment of student's mental health and the administration does not seem to be informed as to what is taking place inside of classrooms. Students are penalized for things beyond their control and leadership does not follow up or turns a blind eye to important issues. There are NO school trips, enrichment experiences, or class projects as students are subjected to worksheets and packets all day long. Student voice is not valued in the space but is seen as disrespectful if a student speaks up about any of the many problematic issues at the school. This school needs better leadership, and students need to be treated with humanity here. Currently, that is not happening. My child will be transferring schools as soon as possible.
