Hot steamy pile of vomit of a school. Constant fights, bad teachers, terrible punishments. In every way possible, garbage.

If you want your children to succeed in life don't send them to this school because the teachers are awful, the food is terrible, and the lessons aren't even what should be taught at the time.
