I went to this school for the last half of my 7th grade year. It isn't a bad school once you are in it. Yes some teachers don't teach but they let the kids controll the class. Only a few teachers there a tough on the kids. and the principal Mr.Oliver is actually relly nice and is working on keeping the school in check.

The kids in this School Smoke, and are alway tuching each other, boys don't have respect for girls they're always tuching them, hitting them, and talking about having a realtionship with them. there is no control.This school is filled with horrible teachers that don't teach the students, and when ever your child misses school the teachers let it go and don't give the child the work he or she missed, some teachers don't even teach, computers are teaching the childern. The lunch is horrible, they don't give kids good food and if they want good food i cost over $5 a day.

A new principal and all the new teachers have made a big difference for this school. My oldest son wants to go to school this year.

Horrible school. I teach there and would never send my child there. Maybe the new principal will make a difference but I doubt it.
