This is a terrible school. This is my last year there but seventh grade was the WORST!! all of my teachers left besides two teachers. The principle even left! there is a fight at least once a week. i was going to the bathroom and i saw that written on the toilette seat said "i don't deserve to live" the reason that they wrote it on the toilette seat was because there was not enough room to write it on the walls! something needs to be done!!! this school needs to be fixed!!!
