Overall experience
When my child first entered this school in 6th & 7th grade, it was a awful experience. My child was bullied by another student for a long while, and it went on from one year to the next. I had no help from the Principal and the Assistant Principle . They denied the situations because of ignorance, assumptions, and bad follow up work of the Assistant Principal (who is still there). The assigned Assistant Principal did more harm than good which negatively effected my child greatly. When the new Principle came aboard, I contacted her and talked to her about the prior years. She made sure to help change the problems. We were assigned a new Assistant Principal, as I asked for, and she made sure the other student would not be in same classes. In the end, the whole truth came out, and my son and I were believed when this other child actually attacked him in front of other teachers and students, without cause on my child's part. My child's grades went from bad to great! They have a good IEP program overall but do not expect it to be as comprehensive as some elementary schools. Over-all the teachers are good. Close Quote
