This is the most disappointing pathetic school I have ever encountered in my life. The majority of the teachers act like they do not want to be there, that everything falls on the parent, and it’s almost like they’re mad that you and your child even exist. They don’t communicate anything with you until it is a full blown disaster. They blame parents for the children’s behaviors, they publicly humiliate students in front of their peers and other staff, they scream at these kids like they are in prison, I rarely see any positive reinforcement or redirecting, and when they don’t feel like dealing with your child they will just call you to come pick them up. These teachers and principles are not educated in any type of child development or behavioral therapy or even just what is age appropriate. This school fails those students every single day. Of course there are a few absolutely WONDERFUL individuals that teach and work there, but the environment is so chaotic, and they lack support and resources making it hard for them to do their job. It’s honestly mind baffling how poorly they handle situations.

This school was very well organized and I enjoyed all fours years there and made a ton of friends.

I was a student here, and everything was terrible. Fights everywhere, rats in the bathroom, roaches EVERY WHERE, threats of rape, lots of drug dealing, etc. Not great counseling, or adult supervision. Staff are nice, but they don't have great attention to detail with student interactions, resulting in the many fights.
