This school has serious problems with respect, professionalism, and abuse of authority. The library staff, especially some of the women who work there, are consistently rude, dismissive, and unhelpful. Instead of doing their job and supporting students, they treat us as if we are bothering them. Simple questions are met with irritation, bad attitudes, and disrespect.One staff member in particular abuses the small amount of power she has. She stopped me when I was simply picking up my backpack, as if I were about to commit a crime. She canceled my exam twice, not because I was using my phone, but because I had headphones in my pocket that I was not even using. My phone was inside my backpack. She waited for me outside the girls’ restroom, searched my belongings, and publicly accused me, humiliating me in front of others.Students are constantly treated with suspicion instead of respect. The environment feels hostile and stressful, not supportive. Because of this lack of control, respect, and professionalism, at least one teacher has already resigned, and I doubt he will be the last.This school urgently needs accountability and change.

My son is in the 8th grade and had a great experience and prepared him for high school. Mr. Rosado has really enhanced the safety, engagement and academic rigor since his arrival. My son has really developed thanks to the teachers and staff.

I do not recommend this school. I have serious safety concerns, including biting incidents and frequent bullying. When serious incidents are reported to the principals, no action is taken. The overall student behavior is poor, with frequent use of inappropriate language, and I worry about the negative influence on children’s academic progress and confidence.
