Bullying is a huge problem at this school. My student is excited about learning but is constantly distracted in the classroom by bullying and disruptive students. I do believe that the teachers care and are doing their best but are significantly compromised by the lack of discipline in the classroom. I do not believe the school supports mental health and well being of the students as they allow the bullying behavior to continue and escalate. Ive watched my student that loved school become depressed and anxious.

Been in this school 2yrs now, and have had many issues. From bullying not being handled, even after repeated complaints. A math teacher who has refused to help my student learn a new skill as she was absent the day they learned it. And just says you should know this.
Bus transportation has been a hot mess both years. With little help from them or district to resolve anything. From late to no pick ups, or kids held accountable for actions on bus.
Can not wait for my kids to be done.
Have meet a few teachers who do genuinely care for their students, but the others make it not so great.

I don't see how this school received a 5/10 score however i strongly disagree. Staff are excellent and truly care for the children's welfare and education. All of the teachers show a true desire to help the students and it is also a very safe environment. My son attends here and there have been 0 fights in 2020 and 2021.
