The principal is more obsessed with maintaining professional appearance so any issues with the school are SEVERELY downplayed. Kids assault each other? No consequences, just sign a paper contract that says you wont do it again, forget any physical or psychological trauma causes over the assault, the paper is signed. Someone threatens another student with a suicide/homicide letter? No, it wasnt serious, it was a just kidding moment.

The new principal does not do anything but look T his phone all day. I feel like the bullying has gotten worse and there are fights weekly. He doesnt even do anything about them. He lets the teachers try to. Real the fights up and just watches. The bad kids are ruining the school. Vaping in the bathrooms and being mean to us good kids.

This is by far the worst school in the world, if you dont speak Spanish
Posted: January 17, 2020
Most of the homework is in Spanish, my child doesnt speak it and has to work twice as hard. First to try to figure out what it says and try to answer it. My son turned in his homework in English and got a F because it wasnt in Spanish.... And it was Math!!

My daughter was being grouped by the male kids and the teachers did nothing and made my daughter write a letter to apologize

The whole school has learning differences you cannot speak both English and Spanish and expect the no Spanish kids to learn when you are all about the Spanish kids
Posted: January 17, 2020
My son ran a 7 min mile on his first day of school, the Spanish kids try to jump him because of that, and the teachers let hit happened because it made him look bad that a kid who just came to the school already met the standards. If you are a military family this school will let the Spanish kids bully your kids because of the fact that your kids are from a military family.

This school was ok, I thought I could have gotten a better education at other schools though. While being a student there on my first year (6th grade) it all seemed to be as if it were 5th grade review, even coming from a school in the same district. And one of my former math teachers would probably be the main reason why I didn't really have a high rating for this school. This teacher would yell everyday at their class, and a few specified students. A kid in my class was trying to get his things to order as instructed by the math teacher, but then the math teacher yelled at the student for standing up. This teacher also often doesn't let the student explain, and this teacher also once told a child to "Please shut up." This wouldn't be a school to reccomend.

DO YOUR KIDS A FAVOR AND DON'T ENROLL THEM HERE!!!!! Being an 8th grader was supposed to be a great experience with promotion and all, complete opposite. Teachers could care less about you. Thought that popularity never exsited? I thought the same before coming here. If you're not attractive, no one will talk to you. It didn't even feel right promoting here. Everyone one cheered for the 'popular' kids leaving the rest claps from their family members. It's ridiculous, students will do anything for the attention here, no one deserves to even think that. Horrible school. Don't even bother.

I went there and it was a bad experience thinking about it makes my blood boil. Angry students and pointless regulations you wouldn't see in a high school and the constant feeling of having to be on you're toes or be attacked, robbed, picked on, etc. being there taught me to be less trusting and a little more cold REGARDLESS of reputation and conviction. In the end most student's i went to school with there became the stereotypes of what bigots think of low income families.
