What people are saying

by a student
Monday, December 19, 2022

The teachers are underqualified and did a poor job of preparing me for high school. They treated students disrespectfully (some times the disrespect was based on race, gender and sexual orientation) and didn't receive any consequences when receive by parents and students alike. There were a few avoidable incidents regarding the middle school that could have been avoided if competence was present. Most issues involving teachers and student were more often than not handled unprofessionally and on occasion had students need therapeutic counseling (outside of school). All and all, the vast majority of the teachers behaved unprofessionally and sometimes mentally abusive to students. This review was written in 2022. Close Quote
