I go to this school right now and the staff are nice but there are a lot of fights and few securities but it's just on the line on where it's ok and also counseling is great they know how to work things out but most of the kids are not watched out on swearing calling names and also a bit of racism so if you send your kid here they are gonna get punted at least once or just like I said above, I got both.
