this school is not what it use to be. With all the new teachers not knowing what to do it is frustrating on the students. Some of teachers are so incredibly strict when others just don't care at all. One teacher gives out demerits if a student has on different colored socks. The school is always looking to get money and have money events, and then they go and spend that money on knew banners and a bell system that still doesn't work . Teachers do not care at all about the students feelings or emotions, all they care about is if they did their work and if they have a valid excuse as to why not and the teachers don't listen. We don't have a Spanish teacher so there is virtual online which is no help at all. I just do not enjoy my time here and the school staff does not do a good job running it.

Initially attracted by the small classes, they were both a blessing amd a curse. The staff are committed to their students, concerned about recent turnover though.
