I've met amazing teachers who constantly inspire me to do better and they have helped me grow. I had math teacher who gave me the confidence and made me believe that I could pass. I've also met great kids who ended up being someone of my best friends. The food is probably the only thing I don't like about the school. I love our administration and how they care to keep us safe and they do great to improve things for us.

Students are not provided adequate emotional well-being support from teachers who need emotional well-being support. Teachers can not provide provide emotional well-being support if they are in need. I am concerned about our students.

We moved from a great school district in Texas…. The teachers here are responsive, and try to attend to any problems when communicated…. My kids had to play catch-up when we moved…. Curriculum is fairly progressive and we’ve loved our teachers!
