5/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis school is not bad it's more strict but it's ok, to be honest, I've had amazing teachers so far ( 6th grader) My language arts, social studies, Spanish science, and math teachers all have respect for their students means something they all show the respect needed and they also give support and advice to get better in work I don't hate any of my teachers I don't understand why many people hate on this school it may sound awful but in reality it's not the staff it's the students that don't know how to control themselves and disrespect the staff it's so disrespectful so see that they have no manners toward amazing teachers. I mean not all teachers are the best but if you respect they will be nice to you just respect your classmates and don't get into a fight there's ISD in that school you will get school detention or even worse suspended and you might even switch lunches and to 6A or 6B it depends what grade you are in and you won't be able to see your friends anymore but teachers try their best at points you just be nice no fighting if your dealing with something just feel out a form the the school will give you or talk to your teacher about it and you will get called down to the consular. The 6th-grade counselor is so nice I love her she is the best I haven't met any of the rest but I'm sure they are nice too because that's what they are there for especially since they give amazing advice all my first year isn't so bad I thought it was gonna be worst but no not I learned it's the student they don't care at all.Student Review1y ago
