The staff wasn't the best in helping the students, they only seemed to care only for those in the top tier. In my opinion, the lunch ladies were far nicer to all the students than the staff. If you weren't pretty rich then you really didn't matter to the teachers or other students. I would like to see that staff get training or re-staff the school with people that actually care.

I loved how everyone was kind and caring. No matter what you needed the staff would help. Students were kindly and outgoing. The food was great and the activities the school had were fun and amazing
