There are many fights at this school. Bullying is a major problem. Teachers appear out of it and not too happy to be there. Admin has many problems they are dealing with all at once that it seems neverending and as if most things do not truly get resolved.

When you walk into the cafeteria and they are serving cheesy tater tots with pretzel sticks, and when your math teacher makes you watch a video on screaming goats, that's how you know your school is cheap. Or you can also look at everything else. Heck we don't even have a swimming pool, or even an auditorium.

The teachers are caring, knowledgeable, communicate diligently, and enjoy their profession. Leadership is solid. Bullying is little to non-existent at Postlethwait.
