This School is Alright But Too Much Fighting. They Should Prevent fighting and Bullying. Kids Be Fighting and Don't even Be Suspended For That Long. Second Warning , The Kids Should Be Expelled. Students Act Like The Teachers are their Friends When They Shouldn't be. They Should Let the Kids Focus On them Books and Not Worrying About Creating Friends With the Staffs , etc.
