What people are saying
by a student
Tuesday, February 7, 2023

Open Quote The hallways were constantly buried with trash and walking through these halls constantly felt unsafe. Bullying was everywhere and the implementation of drugs and hierarchy among students was terrifying. Very little was done to help these conditions beyond stuffing us all in the auditorium and giving us speeches about how ''friendship does not exist.'' However, I can say, despite all that, I met some of my best long-term friends there, with whom I bond by talking about the horrors we faced in middle school. Close Quote
