6/9/2023

I regrettably sent two kids through here. I should have spent the money and moved to private schools. They both attended private high schools and had much better success. Teachers are rarely available for extra help. There are a handful of good ones but some truly awful ones too. Many are protected by unions and tenure. The overall body of students in the school is decent. A few bad apples can spoil the whole bunch and there's not much the school can do about it. It seems like the big stuff they ignore and loses their minds over little things. The best thing when our kids moved on was never having to take a middle school bus ride from Hell again.

I am a retired teacher from this school. I know the dedication that the teachers in this school devote to their students. I would have been extremely happy to have my children attend this school. I miss teaching here, and wish all the students and teachers my very best.
