This school is gross, teachers play favorites, and the food is just bad. It's so gross ad teachers are horrible. They cut budgets and teachers are very, very unkind. They need to be stopped. There should inspectors.8th graders have vapes and weed. Please don't let your child go here. They lose your homework and say it was never handed in and give you a zero. I wish I could give this zero stars.

The school is terrible. In all definitions of the word. The food isn't healthy for you, in fact i had the displeasure of taking a sip from a month old orange juice carton. The teachers do play favorites no matter how you act. If you can help it, dont go to this school. The high school is much better though.

The teachers in the school have favorites and if your kid is not one of their favorites good luck to you because they are not going to do well no matter what you do or what your kid will do. They mysteriously lose your kids homework and say it wasn't handed in and mysteriously lose his or her classroom work and say it was not handed in and they give zeros on snow days to to go against their grade and when you call and complain about it nothing will be done don't bother I'm told the high school is much better to deal with
