This school used to be stellar. In the past four years, leadership has become very removed from involving parents and developing a rapport with students. An overabundance of meaningless Spirit Days mean children no longer want to participate in them. There’s a verbal focus on bullying but no real follow through. The positive areas are extremely caring teachers, excellent specials instruction and the real connections made in classes. The music department is outstanding and the schools orchestra is the best. The office staff works very hard despite the hardships they must endure due to ineffective leadership.

I’m not sure why this school gets so much negative attention, it’s been a great experience so far!

It is very hard to have an active social life in this school, especially if you go to NMTCC. The school is so large, I can and have gone days without even seeing my friends. I have become very depressed because of my social isolation, and how uninteresting the classes are. My physical health is suffering due to anxiety and depression, and I'm worried that I may have to look into alternative schooling options if my mental health plummets too far.
