This school is absolutely the worst school to ever go to. Bullying goes around everywhere such as so much drama. Random kids will look at you then want to fight for no reason. You cant be mysterious and by yourself without somebody wanting to hate on you. The teachers are a 50/50. Some are really sweet and then some are so rude. Especially administration. Administration treats you so poorly, they make you want to cry and then laugh in your face about it afterwards.

The drop off/pick up is well organized and runs smoothly. The front office seems to be bothered by parents. The security is good at this school. The cafeteria is a mad house. The library is nice and librarians helpful. The P.E. teacher is awesome and the kids love her. The art teacher is rude and tells students that she does not like their work instead of offering constructive criticism and suggestions for improvement. The classroom teachers need more training on how to take control of their classroom in a healthy, but effective manner and children need to receive consistent discipline with punishments proportionate to their bad behavior. The school does an excellent job of involving parents in family night activities and field day. Something should be done about the outdoor premises to better control fire ants as kids are always coming home with a ton of bites since there are mounds everywhere.

From my experience standing on the outside looking in on my child who attends this school is absolutely sad. Let me explain, my child came to me in tears because the other children are giving my child dirty looks like they have a problem with my child. My child is a sweetheart and doesn't deserve to be disrespected by the other mean children who thinks the world owes them something. My child can't even achieve in passing classes because of the bullies in this school. I will be pulling my child out. It's no wonder this school has failing overall ratings. The faculty needs to fix the attitudes or bring it up to the BOE.
