Not very good school, zero attempt to end bullying aside from those assemblies, other than that if you report something about bully nothing to prevent it happens. The most done is the student/students get talked to. The food have given many children food poisoning. The lunch ladies are very kind and so are most teachers but not very much learning gets done until around 6th grade. They focus mostly on the students grades rather than the mental health. FAR more worried about children showing up to school, or chewing gum, or the way a student dresses rather than worrying about actually learning. I know that i said they focus more on grades but they really don’t teach that well. Mrs. Stone, Ms. Moody, Mr. Reid, and Ms. Torres are the best teachers btw 🤫 Anyways, my time at this school wasn’t terrible i just would most definitely NEVER send my child here. 2 stars
