The culture of the school is poor. The (...) leadership and staff will cover up and lie. Bring a tape recorder to any meeting you have with staff. Inform the police on staff. they are not to question your child without your presence. Keep all copies of any paper you turn into the school including shot records. Make them sign receipts for anything you give them. copy and initial that they received them. Yes this is that kind of school. Oh, and by the way my child is on national honor roll. Not some thug. They are a school that encourages bullies. the gym teacher mixes the freshmen with the higher grades. Then goes missing? When a child died from the pressure of all the bullying they shuffled all the staff around. So all the new staff now say I was not there when that happened! Yet they all act the same and encourage the bullies. Run do not walk away from this school. Do not trust the staff they are fall guys for the last horror show.
