My experience with the school has made me, and also broke me because of the environment And how the school proceeds about certain situations. My best part of the school was being involved in the sports activities but the worst part was my safety wasn't always 100% secure. I would like to see a change in the safety and the faculty, staff and administrators to ensure that the school is the best place for their child to be.
