Absolutely best school district I love working here!

Zero stars . This school turns a blind eye to bullying after it is reported. Counsler and principles do not have childrens best interest in mind. I have asked for help from the consuler and she said oh i can not do that and does not look into bullying. In an emergency i asked the principal to call m

If i could give this 0 stars i would. I faced tons of racism there and the teachers didn't even care. I watched other black students be called the n word and when she got mad and tried to call the kid out the teachers punished the girl who was racially targeted. They also condoned prejudice of not just races but of politics as well. If you have views that are not conservative and are any race but white i highly recommend going somewhere else.
