This is the worst school ever! The teachers let other students cuss and chew gum in class. They don't teach basic writing or math.

I hate this school it's unfair and they need to teach basic writing and math the teachers let kids cuss and bully other students and chew gum and misbehave they don't do anything when I complain about being Bulley I got ISS for using self defense and nothing happened to a student when he kicked me in the head during gym class. I hate this school; the teachers are ok to at least most of them are. They should also teach us more important things like how to do our taxes not trigonometry! When would I use that in day to day normal life? I would use taxes every day! That's all for now.
