This school wants to potray a safe enviorment and zero tolerance to bullying, but that is completely the opposite. Look for another school, dont waste your time with this one. The principal the supposed support staff and even some of the teachers are not helpfull with issues you may have with yoir child.

The children do not know how to be friends or kind to one another especially the girls, which seems a product of homelife brought to school. The school is without a counselor that could maybe improve the situation. The Principal is aware of the toxicity of the children in the school but is without solutions and somewhat blames Covid for the delay social behavior of the kids however now the kids have had the whole year to adjust but remain toxic toward one another. There is a fair amount of cheating. My child on a regular basis gets cheated off of, gets her projects stolen, and her school supplies taken from her which is disruptive to her learning, and for the teacher that in his own time went looking for her project to return it to her. Only 7 students out of the approximate 150 kids in 6th, 7th and 8h grade made straight A's. They have done nothing to help improve any of my child's skills and in fact the reorganize in the middle of the year that took place caused her to back track in mathematics. This realization made me check my child into online resources to help supplement her learning to help her get back on track. I have experienced them trying to change my child's classes and schedule without consulting me first. Unfortunately, lack of resources that could help and poor behaved kids or kids that lack a sense of caring seems to be a trend in middle school that is affecting academics and this school.

I was a student at this school not only did it not prepare for college, it is also one of the worst school environments ever. The fact that you cannot select you're classes is a joke the material taught is very narrow and the IMP math system is the reason may kids from this school can not do basic mathematical ideas. If you value you're kids education please do not send them to this school.
