Open Quote Classes are very large...most of them with over 32 kids per class. They have to share lockers, due to over crowding. Advanced students are not challenged..they are forced to sit there all day without anything to do. They eliminated the gifted program a couple of years ago. After school clubs are not supported by the teachers...there are 4 teachers that will do something, all the rest are too busy with their own lives to help create a better school. Bullying is a huge problem at this school. Though teachers try, the bullies are very clever and keep it below the radar....so if the teacher does not see it, nothing can be done about it.
