The bullying and poor behavior of kids at this school is ridiculous and adults hide it until they can't. Then they lie about how bad it really was. They react when things happen instead of acting to avoid issues. The IB classes are a joke and just a fancy name to put on a class title. I'm getting ready to apply to college and realize that these courses mean nothing because they aren't the correct level and they took away all the AP classes and there aren't enough dual enrollment courses. The grades are fake too. Show up and you're guaranteed to be high Honor Roll.
