if you wanna hear what's its like from an A B student that has been going to this school for all 3 years, keep reading.This school is just the worst school you could go to, suspend over small little things, fights every day, screaming in classrooms, MAJOR bullying/cyberbullying especially to disabled kidsthe elective teachers aren't that bad but some will treat you bad just bc they dont like you or if you just are being straight up disrespectful.the course teachers are all quitting which leads you to being dispersed and learning nothing and not being prepared and having no comprehension of the basic knowledge youre supposed to know by then.Yes they do culture appreciation etc etc but they dont do it enough, this school does absolutely nothing to keep you motivated to do school work andthis teaches you basically nothing and most of the times if you need extra help you wont get itthe principal never comes out and chats with the kids/teachers these kids smoke ALL THE TIME, yes even 6th graders ! in classrooms, bathrooms, hallways, cafeteria, bus, you name it.expect peer pressure in heremy point: dont send your kids here, they will most likely change in a bad way and develop some kind of mental health issue or make it worse.

There are a bunch of bullies and half the teachers left in the middle of the school year and never came back and my child had a sub for the remaining of the year. My child can’t remember one thing they learned from that school.

This school is the absolute worst, just like another parent stated they suspend your child for every little thing instead of trying to help them. My daughter has a cognitive disability; she was diagnosed with a rare brain disease a couple months ago. Since being back at school I feel like none of the staff have any compassion for my daughters disease, she was expelled 3 times in one month. She is also being targeted and harassed by this one boy, they turned it around on my child and expelled her, no consequence for the young man. With this last suspension I don’t feel comfortable sending my child back. The staff there say inappropriate things in front of my child as if she’s not going to tell me. Im looking into a different school for her. Ive contacted the superintendent and I haven’t received an email or a call, they just don’t care.

They treat the children as if they are criminals and they abuse their authority by suspending kids for 5-10 days for any little thing. Your child will not have a chance to learn here because they do not take an interest in your child's education but rather suspend them.
