This is the worst school my kids have ever been exposed to! We moved here from another state recently and from day 1 this has been the worst experience my kids and I have ever had. Moving from the south to here this was a cultural shock to experience such bad school conditions. I hope when we are able to move that the other districts are not like this. After not even 2 weeks of attending this school I had to remove them from the school for teacher bullying and misconduct especially the band teacher! My kids are not trouble makers did nothing and were verbally humiliated daily by the band teacher for no reason. The office staff are extremely unprofessional and rude. I am from the south where school is a safe place and I didn't feel my kids were safe going to this school. Now my kids are in online public school. The registration lady mentioned I'm not the only person who has pulled their kids from that school it seems to be a pattern! That school should be shut down! Even other students were telling my kids all the teachers there are bad. The district needs to take a really deep look into that school. Not all students have the options to do online schooling and have to suffer in those situations. I would avoid this school at ALL COSTS!

If you have a straight A student then you might do fine but if you have a child that struggles with school or any difficulties then they don't care. Teachers yell at students, some have even quit because of the toxic environment among staff. No support at this school whatsoever. They do not care about students that need extra help.

While the academics may be solid, the school culture leaves much to be desired. Some staff members have been known to speak harshly to students, embarrass them in front of peers, intimidate them without parents present nor contacted, or treat certain kids unfairly. Discipline is often inconsistent and feels more personal than policy-driven. When parents raise concerns, they're often met with defensiveness rather than collaboration. It has been referred to as a social club - the teachers and leaders have each other's back even if they're in the wrong. "Investigations" into concerns typically end with "no findings" even with proof. If Your child requires accommodations, don't expect them to comply. Rather, some teachers get annoyed by the extra responsibility. Students deserve a safe, respectful environment, and that starts with the adults in charge.
