The principal doesn't talk much to students. You can always tell that the teachers and other staff members pick favorites and sometimes give them grades they do not deserve. Beanies are prohibited even in the cold, most students where them to keep warm but are not allowed to anymore. Bullying is not an issue but when it happens it is treated as unimportant and if a student is bullied by a teacher and tells then it is like nothing even happened.

There is no variety, there are no dietary accommodations, portions are very small with a high price with lunch at 2.50. Menus are not given to students and when they are they are not accurate, the value of the food is no good.

The school participates in frequent drills to ensure safety, and holds two health fairs a year. They also hold two blood drives each year.
