School Reviews
1 12/6/2018
There is an embedded bullying problem at this school and it is disheartening to discover that actually it appears the bullies are basically given lisense to do whatever they want. We have tried everything to encourage a better response among administration, but it appears the students that suffer the assaults are left feeling they do not matter and are on their own. A huge problem at this school! This could be easily addressed and such a difference made if motivated individuals were in place who really cared. Be very aware before you place your child here. If your child is popular though, they will be treated like royalty.
