ares in the last week The assistant principal treats the kids like criminals ( Ms Clayton) , but yet the school feeds them worst than if they were in jail . Every other kid has a cup of ramon noodles at lunch that they bring from home because they refuse to eat the lunch at school.They have no academics or sports . They say they prepare them for college, but in fact they treat them like if they were in kindergarten. These kids need to learn to be to be independent .

I commend the teachers for their hard work. I am very thankful to them for instilling the desire to attend college. The teachers are great mentors to the students. The only problem I see is that the parents are not involved in their child's education. Many parents do not support the teachers and it is a shame that such great education is being wasted because of the lack of parental support that is needed to get ahead in life.

I do commend the teachers for working hard and giving their best but at times it is the student's behavior and part it is a parental problem when they do not support the teachers. I like the school but I only wish there was more parental control in controlling the students and not blaming the teachers and more parental support for the teachers. I believe they are doing a great job and this school is optional there's always the neighborhood school!

Not what it is expected to be. Teachers are not professional and do not concentrate on teaching students, all they do is give detintion for any reasons. They are focusing on organization instead of teaching. Very disappointed !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
