Middle school is already hard for pre teens and teenagers. As someone who grew up with anxiety without knowing it and had to come to this place, it triggered me a lot. Everyone was rude as anything, teachers fed up, substitute teachers refused to come back, this place was a mess.

Getting a phone call saying your daughter's absence from school is unexcused after informing the teacher she's sick doesn't sit well with me. It's negligence on the school's part in one manner or another. It's offensive getting a call from school that makes you feel like they're saying "hey you're basically a bad parent". If it's a policy it needs changed. The bus has been more than an hour late on multiple occasions (almost biweekly). Not a very well ran school in my opinion.

William Fleming is TERRIBLE at helping student who are being bullied. One of my friends was called the f slur right in front of an administrator, and all the administrator said was "I better not have heard what I think I did." The same friend was also yelled at by a teacher until he started crying, and was miserable the rest of the day. The teachers tend to not do anything when it comes to making students feel safe or cared for, and many are hypocritical about phones and such. Zero out of ten, would not recommend.
