The school's leaders need to stop protecting and tiptoeing around bullies that beat the you know what out of good kids and destroy their self-esteem with severe harassment

Posted by a student on 1/24/2024Awful people! Worst schools years of my life! They have a strict no phone policy you can’t even use your phone during lunch or you break.
