Most piece of Removed school ever. Their bathrooms are rotting. Teachers bully students. Every student gets bullied. The principal and dean of students is the most rotted mother Removed in the world. THE BUILDING IS FALLING APART. The lunches are Removed. Yet they say that students exceed in their school when they don't.

This school does allow bulling, ask a child who is being bullied over and over. All they do is talk to them, if they even do that much.
