Very disappointed in this school. The office staff cares more about numbers than human beings, kindness or understanding. There was violence almost daily on the bus and they hotline parents without substantiated information. A gun was found just recently on a middle school student. I am more than disappointed in this school and do not recommend it to anyone

This school is not what they tell you they are. They say they care about the student's mental health but only a couple of teachers, and the nurses care, and this school environment is not as safe. violence almost everywhere he teachers will be aware but will do very little to stop it. Counselors shame students for their mental needs. As a student that comes here, Trust me.

Mixed feelings overall. Not enough help for teachers, very passionate people, and a cliquey environment. Most kids are passed along without any consideration of their effort. Fear of not appeasing the parents directs the administration.

ABYSMAL! Someone needs to step up and be in charge and stop blaming teachers for everything wrong with student outcome!

Most do the best they can, but the administration is not supportive of teachers, make too many demands on teachers that have nothing to do with helping students succeed (just a lot of extraneous paperwork), and discipline is horrific which is poorly addressed by administers. Teachers are blamed for things out of their control.
