There are to many people at the school, and some teachers are really annoying. My main problem with this school is that your not allowed to use your phone because of all the annoying kids that got them taken away. We should be able to use our phones because we need a break from school during lunch. Maybe you need to consider that some people don't want to interact with other kids, honestly I wouldn't blame those people because I am one of them.

Bullying is rampant and principal does nothing. Please do not go to this school. Teacher create unsafe environments, and bullies constantly throw objects at others and namecalling all the time.
