Don't bring your kid here, all staffs/teachers gossip about each other or to the students. They have favorites when it comes to students and students race/ethnicity. They also lack professionalism when it comes to oversharing about personal life. The only thing that made school fun was having friends.

Although there are quite a few new teachers on campus each year, the dedication of administration to prepare them quickly for their job in the classroom as well as the older teachers helps the campus to maintain it's effectiveness.
