Worse School teachers bring down students. My child is in 8th grade Henderson she personly is the worst one she's had. And dont let me get started on coach stone he will put his hands on a child then when the parents get up there he act like he the nices person. The principal you see him maybe once or twice a month but he for sure gone be there when its an event.
