School Reviews
4 5/25/2020
Be a nice school but could be better. The teachers are often not agreeable, and many students are out of control. Also, they will suspend you even for something that you did out of school and didn't have ANYTHING to do with school. I have been suspended for something like this before. Even worse, you cannot go home if you don't have a fever or didn't throw up. This is bad because if you feel really really bad and don't have a fever or haven't thrown up, they cannot give you medicine or send you home. Last, the tests are overdone. You will have a major test maybe 3-5 times a week, even in third grade! Really, this school could be much better than it is.
