this school sucks. Many kids threatened my life at that school and when I told someone " oh I'll look into that" they never did. I got hard proof . they STILL didn't do anything. This school is horrible. Which is why my family and I moved

I liked Beech Grove High School because it was such a small school so you would be able to learn much better and get more one-on-one time with teachers. I feel that they could do better by doing more community service.

The school only cares about what benefits them, like for example drug test they drug test students short noticed and saying no results in punishment. As well as them not caring about the weather, it’ll be -1 in the morning while the students have to wait at the bus stop, with no delay or e-learning?...
