My experience at this school was quite like no other. Very open minded and creative environment.

How would you feel of you were called homophobic slurs, threatened on a daily basis, and nothing was done about it on top of that? Well congrats, that's what it's like at Bullen. I've only gone here for a year and I (unfortunately) am attending again this year. But I have seen things no teenager should EVER seen. Fights every week. Slurs left and right. Bullying is NORMALIZED. The principal doesn't care. I struggle with really bad mental health issues and this school and its community almost drove me to ending my life.People would constantly harass me, bully me, threaten to hit me, and make me feel like I am not person because I am apart of the LGBTQ+. I only because friends with 4-5 kids and mainly hung out with my teachers because they were the only people (besides my friends) who understood me. Besides the terrible community, the place is FILTHY. There is trash everywhere in every single hallway. Gum stuck in any place possible. There was even an ant infestation in one of the rooms. How do you even let that happen?As for the curriculum/content that we learn, it isn't all that bad. Some of the teachers could definitely use more work on teaching it but I passed with straight A's. It's incredibly easy for the grade and could definitely be harder in my opinion (compared to my old middle school), but I don't believe that is the teachers fault. The teachers do a good enough job. Each school teaches differently and that's on them.Overall, would I recommended sending your kid(s) to this school? Hell no. You could compare this place to prison. If you genuinely care about your kids health mentally and physically, DO. NOT. SEND. THEM. HERE.

If the school could get decent people in their office, it would be great. The ladies in the office, especially Kim are extremely incompetent, rude, and not trustworthy. And when you try to make any kind of compliance, it gets nowhere where the principal doesn’t reach out and ignores his emails. This makes me feel like my kids are not valued or staying at the school because they’re not able to address issues that are happening. I’ve never had a school that doesn’t take a parent complaint seriously. And I’ve never had a school where the ladies in the office don’t do what they’re told to do.
