Principal genuinely doesn’t care and will continuously say “I’m sorry you feel that way”, when trying to discuss a bullying issue. What?! Do your job...

Terrible school. Tons of misbehavior, tons of bullying. Students come to school acting like their parents. Teachers are ineffective. No classroom management.
