Open Quote A school that normalizes bullying. I am meeting more and more people who have left this school because of bullying. It is done by the children, but also by the parents. The school and the district do nothing to bring together parents from different cultures. In fact, they do not allow anyone outside their established closed circle to participate. The food is poor and does not provide a balanced diet. Close Quote
