This school is over crowded. Teachers will cancel assignments because particular students do not complete them. Bullying is allowed and no disciplinary actions are taken because of it. There is very little given to music or art education, but sports are a priority. Only the opinion of parents that are considered well-to-do is considered. Many parents drive their children in from areas where they should attend other school because this school is not as strict. Teachers are allowed to voice their political views to students and students of a different political view are looked down upon.
