School Reviews
2 10/10/2025
I work on the same block. I constantly see their students loitering on the sidewalk, cursing (and sometimes fighting) and blocking foot traffic. Just today I saw students from the school in the chinese take out store around the corner, talking very loudly, cursing and spitting. The school's teachers who are also outside along with school safety officers don't seem to care at all.
