Bullying is taken very lightly at this school. As a former student of G.W Bulluck School, the staff today in the central office are not doing there job as they should. My sister who currently attends this school has been bullied horribly for the pass few years on the bus that she no longer will be riding their school buses. Bullying on the buses needs to be constantly watched.

The school is truly amazing. It does not have much money or technology, but it makes up for it in wonderful teachers and staff. The school is full of people who love children and education. The school gets better every year and I haven't heard a bad word spoken about anyone or complaining. I don't know what the parent from 2010 is talking about. I love the school!

Teachers are very immature. Children don't get enough exercise. They don't have a gym and they don't use their very small auditorium for inside activities for the kids. Teachers complain more than teaching so the children who want to learn suffer for the lack of education provided!
