There are a lot of fights at this school, but the principal is very strict about the fights and knows how to deal with them. In my opinion, this school is amazing, and I would love for my child to attend it in the future. The teachers are very helpful and supportive, and the school has a very diverse student population. I believe that this environment is essential for children to learn and thrive. The student body is also very supportive of each other, creating a positive and inclusive atmosphere. This environment encourages students to learn from each other and grow as individuals.

there are a lot of fights in this school, there was even an incident where there was a girl getting bullied and it got so physical the girl ended up passing cold out on the ground. The teachers are ok but the students are really the problem. There are so many cases of fights and bullying that go unspoken and it's crazy. 2.5/5 stars.

DISCLAIMER: This is my personal opinion and my family.

I honestly think this school is quite nice and the rumors that go everywhere that the school is bad and will most likely make your kid go to a bad side is completely false. Most of my family have gone to this school and are now in college and have a degree. If your kid chooses to be with the right people then they will be on the high road to college and have a good job. Now if your kid chooses to Fight, do drugs and etc then that's on them to make that decision, no one is threatening them with their life to do drugs or fight. When I was at this school no one forced me to do anything and there's other ways to be cool not just fighting, getting bad grades, disrespecting teachers, etc. You can also get honor roll or even go up from a D to an A or B, which will get you quite an amount of compliments. Teachers cant prevent that one kid that tries to be cool and disrespects the teacher, that just makes the classmates have a bad impression of the student. Teachers cant go and grab a ruler or a belt and threaten to hit them if they don't behave. Also, teachers don't get paid enough to put up with students that will disrespect them and for all the hardworking activities they create for us just so a child chooses to disrespect them, NO. Either way, they put up with it to support their family. that's why I think all the things people say are out of my way of thinking. AGAIN DISCLAIMER: This is my personal opinion and my family.
