To be completely frank, this school is bad.Worse than bad, if you may.Bullying and racism lies unresolved, and the faculty do little to fix it.Teachers are relatively okay- they tend to overlook many things, and sometimes they are the ones being racist, sexist and unfair-But for the most part, they're fine.For some reason, bullying has become normalized in this school.It's DISGUSTING that I and some others have to watch from afar with nothing we can really do. Some of us even go through this (I won't elaborate further but)Someone I know who had been bullied severely, had tried contacting faculty, and whatever the office people are called,Got pulled in,and the bullies got off with practically a kiss on the cheek.Punishments to this kind of stuff should be enforced, and honestly, harsher.When it happened again, they had fought back, only to be in worse trouble than the offenders.I'm pretty sure I'm not being bullied currently, but people - especially my closest buds - are.I'm sure people will agree with me on this.On a different note, education is fine, teachers do a relatively good job teaching and making sure the students know and understand the material.Most teachers here actually try to make the subject engaging and interesting to the students.Some things could be changed, sure, but I'm relatively happy with the system here.As someone who doesn't do very good in school, I appreciate how the teachers seem to care how you're doing in class.The head janitor in this school is amazing.I love her and everyone else does.Janitors NEED to be payed more, especially her.She does so much for all of us and gets so little appreciation - Shoutout to her !! (we love you)Alright that's all,just know that this is my opinion, and if it came off rude or something, I apologize- mostly.

If you want a real toxic place nd environment which destroys mental health, ruins mental peace, has complete favoritsm, and you are punished, this place is for you! Do not trust a living soul here. This is more like a prison, not a school. It’s basically like you are going here just to destroy your mental health and not to actually learn. Instead of encouraging growth, this school breaks students down and teaches them to distrust everyone around them. DO NOT trust a single person here. By the time you leave, you’re not relieved because you learned something — you’re relieved because you survived.

We moved to Plainfield last year. Our son enjoys learning culture at Freedom elementary. Teachers are great and supportive. No complaints so far.
