There are really good teachers and experiences at this school who really helped me along the way. That was the best part of the experience. The main issue is safety of the school. I have heard personally from 3 girls who had inappropriate experiences with a teacher. They went to admin with this issues and simply told the teacher to stop and removed the girls from his class. They gave him a slap on the wrist for texting teenage girls, offering them rides, touching them in a inappropriate manner, etc.
