I've been here since first grade and it was a nice school with caring teacher and nice activities but middle school is HORRIBLE I can't wait to graduate because the students don't care about ANY work they blew up the science room multiple fights and many lockdowns and many teachers left and it disappoint me as a 8th grader to see my classmates fight, get arrested and have many 8th grade events taken away. It's good for your kids to stay here from K-5 but Please choose a different middle school or school.

5 on scale of 10. I think the school has potential. The humanities curriculum is weak. The school needs to be revamped and restructured for the students it serves.
