The classes were good and the teachers were very nice. They helped when you needed help and made sure that you had reinsurance to understand what was happening.

The education system is terrible, the teachers will stop the whole class to not address but start loud arguments with prominent distractions that occur on a daily basis. Many students are failing and getting held back, the rules apply to some and not all. It is usually a mess.

This school is awful. The staff bullies students just as much as the students. The "resource officers" talk about the female students and stare at them. The whole school should be shut down and redone.
