I would still be there if it weren't for being bullied out of my job by the cafeteria manager as she continues to bully and speak hateful of many tjat work there also...

We came here for an event and had never been before. We only knew it should be held in the gym. I…read morearrived and parked in one lot where there were a lot of cars and some school buses. There was no signage and few people around. I stopped and asked a couple of students if they knew where we could find where we needed to be and they had no idea. We drove around to the office at Harrison and no one was around. My kid took a short walk and saw the back side of the gym. We drove around to the other side and found the main student parking lot and were finally able to find an adult who knew where we needed to be. We tried looking online and could not find a map of the school depicting where each building was. It is a large campus and not easy to get around. Other schools put up signage for events and usually have students volunteer to assist guests in finding where they need to be. We have done this event at other locations through the years and this was the most disappointing setup I have ever encountered. In the end we did get to our event and got to enjoy it thanks to me being early and having the time to screw around finding the right place. This school apparently needs a lot of work in many areas.

I attended this school from kindergarten through sixth grade. One positive aspect was its diverse…read morestudent population, with students from many different backgrounds. However, in my experience, the school could have done a better job addressing concerns related to race and inclusion. I felt that complaints involving racial issues were not always taken as seriously as they should have been. Additionally, I did not always feel that Black students were represented or supported as effectively as other groups. While this was my personal experience, it sometimes created an environment where some students may have felt overlooked or unheard. Overall, the school has strengths, but I believe there is room for improvement when it comes to fostering inclusion, ensuring all students feel valued, and responding appropriately to concerns involving discrimination or bias.
