This school has very strict rules that keeps the school very friendly so bullying and other stuff like that is taken very very seriously and there are not many fights that go on here and there is always cool activities and clubs that you can sign up for. Like for example archery my favorite and the teachers are really cool plus after lunch we go outside for like 3 minutes to gets some fresh air or we can talk with our friends that maybe aren't in the same classes as you overall I love this school.
