This school sucks! The teachers dont even care about anything but fighting the students, thats all they do! And the food is not good its so disgusting!! My daughter was super sick when she ate the nasty school lunch. And the bathroom is so disgusting, all they do is vape and fight. This school is so bad that if you have one day there it will ruin your day! 1/10 dont recommend sending your kids there!
