My overall experience has been fairly decent. The teachers are good at forming healthy relationships with students. The administration is great at their jobs. The best part of my experience would be creating connections that will follow me throughout my educational journey. The worst part would be how admin handles altercations dealing with race. I would love to see more parent involvement and more compassion from staff.

I absolutely hate PCA they don't care when student reach out to them. Especially my teacher currently, she yells at us for no reason and the reason why I've been failing the past 2 semesters. Admin, oh my gosh no. they really DON'T care about you, for example, you are getting bullied, you go to the counselor they do NOTHING. at all. I go home crying everyday for this. Really, if you are planning on putting ur child in this school. DON'T.

Children are not safe at this school. They refuse to discipline students who wish to incite violence on others if they make the school sports teams look better.

Teachers are wonderful but the administration needs to go! If they continue, they will end of destroying everything that makes this school great.
