Stop. Just no. This school Removeds. Don't ever bring your child here. I'm not saying this because I don't like school, school is one of my favorite places to be since its with friends. But this school literally removeds. The teachers favor the popular kids and if you aren't their favorite, then no one will listen to you. I was bullied here for almost a year and none of the teachers cared.
