Very hit or miss school. Some teachers are wonderful, some are disengaged. Many students act out, but many are respectful. The building is fine. If you do look for resources though, there's more than you'd think.

I fear for my child safety not enough teachers one class they're literally teaching themselves on the computer with a teachers aid watching them. Kids have guns!! I truly feared for my child safety. They need a lot of work they need a lot more resources. The children are not learning anything and I mean anything very very sad

This is not a good school. Unfortunately I must say it’s the students. Their lack of care towards their education and environment leads to the teachers to care less and you can see it everyday. Don’t get me started on the drug problem.

Lunch lady's are rude when ordering food. The food was horrible by the way. Kids fight nonstop for fun some things can lead to death or serious injury. This is not a school. It's a prison
