I really like my school and the way it runs. The teachers really care and I feel welcomed. The work is not too hard or too easy, it is just right.

The school just put in cameras throughout the school, and on the outside of the school. All the doors are locked, and you have to get buzzed into the office to get into the school.

Some parent's at the school are really nice and supportive of all the students, but most parents are really just there to make sure their kid gets the best they can.

I am having the same experience as the January 2010 poster. We have come from an out of state school system and there is no comparison. They do not have strong leadership and some teachers are simply in the wrong career. It's a sad situation.
