There is good and bad within everything. We have a new principal, so they are trying to rebuild our school. The students are obviously pushing limits, but they are staying strong. The academics program is definitely trying to be rebuilt as well. The best part is about Magnolia is how much the staff is supportive when you do something good. I would say the worst part is how the students react to rules. If I could change anything, I would like to see more school spirit.

Teachers are nice and helpful to get students ready for college. Although, some students should be more focused on school work.

I've seen video after video that kids have recorded from their phones showing the kind of stuff that goes on in the class...
