HorribleThe school is HORRIBLE with handling bullying,racism and more.the amount of times my children have come home telling me there were kids vaping,drinking alcohol amd having there phone out for inappropriate reasons when it’s strictly unallowed is ridiculous not to mention how they aren’t even able to were simple clothing products as in crocs? They take dress code more serious then anything.and their way of handling it is to give the child used clothes from a nurse that haven’t been cleaned in who knows amount of weeks?the food is disgusting.my son even found a fly in his “Mac and cheese” not to mention there “sides” is bread and butter.while they are expected to eat everything with chocolate milk and orange juice.torture.the amount of racist white girls that appropriate culture and are bluntly racist in that school it too much to count.yet they won’t say a word about it.but get mad because a child decided to were flip flops or shorts in the summer?my daughter shouldn’t be surrounded and made insecure by white girls in the school who were given it all.and there way of handling it is by putting the two or more in a room together to explain why they are having problems with each other as if these aren’t unreasonable children were talking about.they are going to lie and act like there ok with each other just to go outside and fight.over what?well sheesh the school wouldn’t know.cause I can bet you those cameras don’t work.even the online system was horrendous forcing them to be up and in classes at 8 as if there a model ready to represent themselves to classmates they age to be with for 9 school years?no.those children aren’t out shooting deers while their camera is off or playing fortnite. and the teachers are SO lazy with keeping their mask off as if it’s the end of the world if they pull it over their nose.they can’t even tell students to keep the mask over their noses.I really do hope there’s much more changes I really do hope they let these children breath.yes they are there to learn but atleast let them make friends for five minutes.oh and cussing?don’t get me started.I better see changes within this school next year or it’s gonna be further then a review because my children shouldn’t be coming home CRYING.

My children have gone to this school since Kindergarten and they have excelled and are now in 5th and 6th grades. They both have 3.7 and 3.8 GPA's all year. It's a good school.
