i go to school here but i want to stay not known. I know a majority of our student body is not happy at all. we have no freedoms to do anything and we try to write letters all the time to the bored but they just get vetoed. if you want to make your kids happy i suggest the public schools. More options, better food, no uniforms, and phones.
