This the worst school ever. The teachers do not respond to messages. Bullying is highly prevalent. Teachers don't do anything about bullying. Assistant principals and principal don't deal with bullying either. School counsellors are useless. Finally when the kids who get bullied react to the bullying in the wrong way, they get punished and sent to ROCK and the bullies are freely roaming the hallways continuing what they are doing. If you want your child to be safe do not send him or her to this school. Close Quote
