I believe this school really needs to do something about the bullying, its not the phones its how they handle the situations. Its just guaranteed to arise again after being 'Solved'. The school doesn't really care for mental health. Otherwise, its a great school for academics. Teachers are incredibly nice if your respectful.

The only thing that matters to the kids there (85% of them) only car...

It's the best school. The school doesn't go on many field trips but they're working on that. And the learning is easy and understandable.
