my overall experience at this school has been fascinating. I've made many amount of friends that made my middle school year fun and exciting and got to see new things and actually try new activities. what makes this school unique is the students, all the students are friendly and can easily be friends with the school itself makes you not scared to be in middle school. i would most definitely choose this school over again, it was the best couple of years i have had in middle school and kindly, helpful teachers make it even better.

The community of this school is toxic. Not only among the students but on the administrative level. Because of this, there is a revolving door of teachers. The environment is not a safe space for educators to teach or students to learn.
