Sullivan is a good school . I didn't really have a bad experiences in my time there. I think my experience would have been better if I participated in more school activities.

My experience with the teachers helping me get through tough times and tough work is undefeated. Also, this school is extremely diverse with races from all over the world, so you don't have to worry about fitting in.

My child got a mental health screening two times. The staff did absolutely nothing. He's had mental breakdowns he cried alot at school. The staff are like brandless zombies.
