  Graduated from this school a while ago. Respectful staff for the most part, and a great deal of work was put in to make the school a safe place. I was an all A student, and the principal only got to "bond" with the kids who would act out to get attention. It used to bother me to see the kids who would draw Donald Trump on the bathroom with sharpie get positions and higher "rankings" in the school than the kids who had good behavior. I would see the principal doing secret handshakes and stuff with the kid who had just finished doing something awful. I also believe that the school should put more attention into their substitute teacher selection. The first substitute I got in 8th grade replaced my Spanish teacher while she was on M.L. The sub was fired about 4 weeks in for making racist comments and completely disrespecting Mexican culture. Again in English, I received a paranoid substitute, who was convinced that there were cameras in the walls to "catch the autistic kids in action", and that kids with autism will "end up in prison". I wrote a letter to my teacher explaining the situation, and she handed it to her superiors, but nothing was ever done about the situation, leaving a handful of students upset. All in all, I can say that I am glad I went to this school, this is just some criticism. Oh, and teachers should get paid way more than other people. -Have a nice rest of your day :)

  We give this school the title of "no place for hate" but yet all i have experienced for the most part is hate. The kids that are nice are not apart of this but the kids that do not care about anyone but their selves make some peoples experience of middle school suck. I myself experience this day by day. Hate on top of hate. The APs do try to stop what they can but at the end of the day bullies are bullies. There is nothing that we can do about the people that hate life so much that they have to ruin other peoples lives.
