This was really not the best school at all. There are homophobic and racist staff members. While me and my friends we being bullied, WE got yelled at for it. The staff seems to not care about the students and it has made my years a living hell. We tried to do go things, but if you don't removed up to them, it won't be good.

This school has ruined my high school experience. Teachers are rude, many unqualified, they are homophobic towards me, some are racist towards POC's and the counselors do absolutely nothing. I despised this school from the start and I am so thankful that I am graduating this year.
