We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Great Magnet program and smart teachers. Would like to see culture change a little among kids as there was a bullying problem.

I remember being in the minority multiple times but I was never bullied. However, I have heard stories of others being bullied over similar things. The school takes basic security measures; My security was never threatened.
