This school is awful as a child i felt like i was being singled out by some of the teachers and students. The teachers never did anything. I dont know if it was because of the racism problem in this town or the staff just didnt care. When i was hit by other children a long time i ago i was the one who got punished i couldnt play. I spent nights at my house crying and crying it didnt only hurt to be made fun of by literal children but adults as well. Its safe to say this school contributed to my awful childhood and as someone who doesnt even want them i wouldnt let my children come here i wouldn't allow myself to be hurt the same way this school hurt me. Im not saying this school was not ok but for the sake of being honest just take this review as advice
