What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, April 10, 2014

This is the worst school in the district! I have a daughter who is due to graduate June 2014. Last year she was continually bullied by children who threatened her life on a daily basis and the school administration did nothing about it. When she called 911 because they said they had a gun, she was the one reprimanded without me being notified. This year they are not allowing her to take her boyfriend to prom because he was punched in the face and if the student doing the punching is there it might be a problem. My daughter is a 4.0 student and her boyfriend is in the military. They are good kids who deserve to be punished. Close Quote
