really bad school, teachers are really aggressive and strict. food is terrible. cleaners don't do anything, the school is extremely dirty especially the bathrooms. In the hallway, it smells like urine from the bathroom. The food is literally expired and if you ask them for other options they yell at you. Teachers don't know how to teach. Horrible school do not come here.

It's a fun place with many activites and events happening during and after school. I changed schools and came here. I enjoy it twice more than my previous one. It’s a good school.
