Overall most teachers have been very helpful and very educational. All though there was a couple teachers that I believe weren't proffesional. I had two teachers make me feel like I was stupid or not gonna be successful. I was mocked by a teacher who believe making a joke about a student was cool which really wasn't. I also had a teacher "predict" my future which was something so negative and unexpected. Those actions were really unnecessary. That was just bad experience with just two teachers. All the other teachers where just great. They helped you when you needed it and would go more than beyond. Some would joke in a good matter and specifically point one person out. The Principal overall was such a great person always helping and making sure things are running well. As far as grading I believe it was how it was suppose to be.
