Honestly I learned a lot. The work shown wasn't always too hard and it was explained good. I hate how strict they get.

When I attended this school, teachers simply taught the classrooms as they needed to. Most of them did not show emotion toward the students or lesson with the exception of a few teachers who established a more social bond with the students. Teaching styles were rather bland yet concise, depending on the teacher.

If you're looking for some type of pretty landscape, neat, perfect school, then you should be searching in the "private schools section". There is cursing, but I highly doubt other mi...
