Had a lot of problems with teachers who didn't want to teach. It was very clear that most teachers were only there for the paycheck, not the kids. The athletics were not cared about, and the coaches did not care about the children.

I feel like I've had a good experience with this school when it comes to teachers and activities. There are a lot of opportunities for clubs and extracurriculars.

Had a great time at this school and loved everything about this place. Involved in the CMAS program and had so much fun on Market Day with our econ class. Have never been bullied and all of my friends and classmates were cordial to each other and there were so many ways to get involved with the school. Teachers and staff were supportive and we looked out for us and never were disrespectful. Its an amazing community and I plan on coming back there to teach one day. If students complain about bullying they were most likely bullies themselves as my older brother graduated from arcadia and so did my two cousins and never had bullying issues.

It really embrac...
