Trying to contact the school is a waste of time!!! They never return emails or get back to you.

Most teachers are not qualified whatsoever and overall, this school is a mess. They can’t get their kids together and is probably one of the most disorganized schools I’ve been to. I cannot wait to leave.

This school is terrible. I still currently go here and the administration is beyond horrible. As well as the teachers who barely care or help their students. Fights happen at least every week and one time there was a fight that consisted of 10 people. Guns and bullet shells were found last school year (2022-2022) and we had to go on lockdown while students were calling their parents to pick them up. I’d say there was about 200 kids left that day that didn’t go home. Mr Hunt, an admin, continues to look at girls the wrong way and makes them go home for an inch of skin showing towards their belly button. Balkaran finds any excuse to get you in trouble. I hate it here.

This school is outrageously non-responsive. They are terrible with communication - often too little and too late. Getting information on events, sports and most importantly STUDENT SAFETY is like pulling teeth with pliers. Hard and miserable. I will give a valid example. Today at 7:40AM AFTER students had already arrived and started classes parents were notified via telephone auto-mated message that late last night the school was made aware of a gun (school-shooting) threat against the school specifically. Instead of calling us BEFORE our students were to start school - they contacted us after we shipped our children to a threatened environment. HOURS later my child texted me that a LOADED GUN was found on campus and that the students were directed to shelter in place. WHY WEREN'T PARENTS NOTIFIED IMMEDIATELY?! Who is running this school???? They care more about fundraising for their sports teams than they do about the safety of their students. And their drills for active shooters should be addressed too.... why would you line students up outside along a fence for an active shooter drill? DO you want them to be targets???? Shame on you!!!
