School Reviews

Awful. the students and staff there are awful. They give you more detentions than people give you candy on Halloween, and it's just for stupid stuff such as, not having a pencil, being late to class (by a couple of minutes) not going to the bathroom in between classes, and not paying attention to students when they are failing or in danger of. The IEP their can't do their job if there life depended on it. Twice, a student tried to fight me there, and once did the IEP try to stop it. Individualized Education Program? What a joke.
