This is the worst school you could put your child in. The teachers couldn’t care less about how well you understand the material as long as they get the paycheck. The school bathroom are absolutely nasty with many incidents of people spreading poop all over the walls- yuck. There is a huge smoking and fighting problem at this school as well. I highly recommend you avoid enrolling your child here and find somewhere else.

Im a student, currently. It feels as if silence is rewarded, rather than natural curiosity— which is a fundamental element to learning.The school has a good arts program, which is a breath of fresh air from other schools I’ve seen/ been to.But what I’m concerned about is how I’ve caught myself counting down the hours multiple times, rather than enjoying learning— which, if I’m properly informed, goes against the goal of the school as a whole.I witnessed a staff member scold and, frankly, argue with a student over a hat. To be fair, said student was talking back, but in a defensive tone; which suggests the idea that he had past, negative experiences with staff.Overall, i would recommend this school with caution.
