I love my school but I think we could be more diverse and safe. For example, we could walk out of the gate in front of the gym and leave school if we wanted too.

I liked some of the teachers, not very many. I would like to see a lot changed at Ider. Ider is not a place where many people want to send their children due to lack of leadership. Lack of anti-bullying policies, etc.
