4/19/2020

I loved going to this school when I was younger. It was fairly new so it was very clean, and the funding was obviously good because we had a lot of awesome resources at the school, such as a computer lab filled with Macs. The teachers were awesome for the most part, the principal was awesome, and there was a lot of opportunity to be creative, and participate in school wide activities.

Her poor attitude and dictatorial rule over the school has both students and teachers living in an environment of fear. Her constant threats and unwillingness to broker any disagr...
