What people are saying

Teachers “forget” to put in your grades, leaving you a bad grade until they find the work you turned in. There was a fire going on at the school and they tried to convince everyone that there was nothing happening, despite the smoke leaking out of the cafeteria. Oh, not to mention they DIDN’T HELP THE STUDENTS LEAVE! THE STUDENTS WALKED TO THE 7/11 BY THEMSELVES BECAUSE THE TEACHERS DIDN’T BOTHER TO HELP THEM LEAVE. THEY DIDN’T SHOW UP UNTIL 10-25 MINUTES AFTER THE FIRE BROKE OUT. I know all this because I was a student this year and will now be transferring. Never again will I attend. Close Quote
