The best part was a few teachers I had and the experience of making friends. But some of the worst parts were the lack of communication from the office with the parents. Overall not bad but there were plenty of moments I got frustrated with my school. For change, definitely try to get communication better. Also less reliance on the Minga app, which often doesn't work properly.

Honestly, I hate this school. The teachers don’t teach you, the staff doesn’t enforce rules, and bullying and harassment is non stop.
