This school barely reacts to bullying. Most teachers are barely in contact with the parents, confusing. Bullying, along with racial slurs is also in abundance. False lockdowns spread panic. And to top off the garbage, the administrators there don't step in to do anything.

Has potential to be good if parents taught their kids how to act decent. Too many fights and drama. It always starts in the home. Just saying.
