Students are awful here. There is no parent to school relation because parents do not make an effort for change in the students. The teachers are not very nice and teach what their lesson plan is quite quickly, so they can be done with teaching for that class. I would not choose this school again because I believe there could be a schools that provides better education.

Before I went to Castle Park Middle I've gotten bullied abo...
