I used to like this school til I've noticed that bullied aren't handled in a proper matter. One of my sons has been a constant target of being bullied and I've said on numerous occasions that something needs to be done and I'm always assured it will be taken care of. I'm tired of being lied to and I'm tired of my son being picked on/bullied. Therefore in resulting of our family to move to a different school district.
