Absolute hell on earth. I hate that school with a passion. They had multiple threats of getting shot up, the teachers either love you or hate you. Administration is terrible, they cover up bad media to make themselves look better. Very racist and horrible kids, a lot of scandals throughout staff and even claims of having a few perverts as teachers.

I have loved shallowater so far! It is small enough to be a small town home but also big enough to where there is always a new person to meet
