I went there for all of middle school. I was told in 7th grade that I was stupid and that I wouldn't graduate by one teacher because i was confused in math. She also said I might as well work at McDonald's all my life. ( i was quiet, did all my work, and was never disrespectful to any staff) Some of the teachers are good but others are absolutely awful. Bullying was a big problem I saw it a lot and typically nothing was done about it. My brother was bullied a lot and often had scratches, bruises, welts, and scrapes on him due to some of the kids who didn't like him. No one got in trouble for hurting him multiple times as well as saying racial insults to him. He was also punched in the face by another kid who didn't get in much trouble. They don't have kids best intrest in mind. A lot of the office ladies were also very rude to everyone. I definitely would not recommend this school.

So many fights in the school. My daughter got physical assaulted. I couldn’t believe that students were recording this 5+ minute abuse. Where were the staff! It was during lunch in a main area. The way the school handled the situation was extremely poorly. They let the girl back at school without any warning to my daughter or us. She was still being threatened and they did nothing. She stopped going after that. How could I fight with her after everything she went through. Horrible administration and lack of supervision. My daughter had her Apple Watch, money, and other items stolen from her there as well. She didn’t feel safe. I knew better then to send her there, but she was excited to be with her “ friends”. I would NEVER! Recommend this school to anyone.

I wish I had read these reviews before I sent my 9th grader here. He struggles a bit in school and this has been one of the worst experiences we have ever had at a school. The teachers don't care, and when I talked to the secretary at school about communicating with the parents more thru emails to notify us about activities & schedules for the end if the year she said everything had been the same for the last 13 years so why do we need to communicate anything? WE just moved here from down south and of course I don't know everything yet! Crazy that they would have that kind of attitude towards new families moving to the area. My son claims when he asked for help from the teacher in his credit recovery class ( where they are supposed to be getting help from the teacher) that they tell him they can't help him and to go sit down and do it himself, they just don't seem to care. I am glad we will be transferring to another school next year.

My two sisters attend this school, and I have been there when I was in 7th grade and it was the worse 6 months of my life, I hated that the teachers didn't even know your name, when you ask for help they only tell you some of the information, I hate that there was no way that you could get help!!!! Back school!!!

There are very few teachers that actually want to teach and help you. Most of them are just doing it because it's a job opertunity. And the guards at lunch are mean and just looking to get people in trouble I am a student that goes there and it is pretty much HELL
