At Bay Point middle school I had a fantastic time it was lovely and the teachers was nice especially ms. best Ms. Rock when mr shedrick came he made things more strict. He made the school better than the image we had when the principal before him had the school a mess Overall it's better and my science class with mr. Jackson was great. The things that they could work on is The lunch schedule.
