My son was pinned down and his backpack was going through and they broke his phone. My son told me that there was five 8th graders but one is the one that did all the damage. Oh yeah my son is a 6th grader. Safety is no good.

My child is unhappy and overwhelmed, and it's only been the first day of school. He is complaining about all the different rules they have. The one he is overexaggerating about is the Saturday detentions, which takes away the children's time to themselves. Time to the kid's self is important, and most likely better for them. Another one my child is complaining about is the chaperone rule, where I, or another guardian, would have to get off work, and take the time when we adults are supposed to be making money, to supervise our children if they are late/tardy. It may not be the child's fault, but it could be. There are many fights, and injuries. This is unsafe, and needs to be supervised by teachers.

My 8th grader has been unhappy here since 6th grade. In 6the grade she felt like teachers focused mist if class time on students with bad behavior. She also said that teachers expect the students to be bad. Additionally, she says teachers always yell. There are many fights. Students at higher academic levels are not challenged or offered advanced courses. Higher achieving students are bored. Teachers seem unhappy. P.E. teachers are demeaning and overlook bullying. Environment dies not feel healthy, nurturing, or challenging academically. I do not feel my child is getting a good education or being nurtured socially or emotionally. I am quite disappointed.

I love this school! I'm sad that a lot of comments on here are from so many years ago. The staff and administration are completely different than in 2010. The staff at this school really care about making it a great place to go to school.
