This school, despite many of it's faults, has been able to cultivate an environment of learning and growth. As mentioned by some reviewers, there are fights between the students that do occur. I believe that this schools new principal - Dr. Baker - is working hard to eliminate conflicts between students. I hope to see this school to improve in the following years.
