I think bullying still probably happens in our school, but I know that the teachers and staff are wanting to make everyone feel as safe as possible. I think we do a good job of keeping the school locked at all times and making sure the students feel safe inside the school building.

I've had a great experience here. There are things that I was able to do that I never thought I would. I was able to take a trip out of the country with my Spanish Class. I don't think I would ave been able to do that if I were at a different school

I was still in the process of learning English since I had only been in the US for a month before enrolling in the Colfax-Mingo district. Little did I know that there was no ESL (English as a second language) programs or any s...
