This place is a mess. The students are very disrespectful and the teachers are lazy and obviously
don't want to be there.

The school itself is below average. The principal there seems to be very narrow minded and uninterested in what parents think. I know from personal experience that he does not seem to listen/care to parents. If you disagree with him this is even more noticeable. Feels that the only option he will give you is his way or no way.
