The staff and teachers don't seem to enroll the self with their students. Teachers can be really rude and not teach at all, and when a students try to explain the teachers what's wrong they are send to CSI for being defiant and rude. The students are ignorant and bully each other by the way they act, look, and come from. Security doesn't seem to care about the students and they would try to help them even if their life depend on it. The school is really unorganized and they don't seem to have any interest on improving the way they are. As a student I hope I don't have to deal with 3 more years of being in this school on my own to try to understand what they don't teach me.
