honestly where do i start? most of the students are just as annoying and ignorant as the other. all…read morethey care about is popularity and status, if you like something other than everyone else you're a weirdo and a freak. if you have an opinion thats different, unless you're popular it's insignificant. not all the students are bad but you'll know which ones aren't because they're not starting drama in the first five minutes of class. this could just be my experience but its true and it has made my time here miserable and frustrating. but other than that most of the teachers are good at their good and actually help students learn, you have the occasional copy-down-these-notes-and-do-this-worksheet not so teaching teacher but thats to be expected (but they should try a new style of teaching). so this school, in short, is a'ight.

TERRIBLE SCHOOL DONT SENT YOUR KIDS HERE! the students are rude, racist, homophobic, disrespect,…read moreand ungrateful. Let's get started on the principle and vice principal first of all the principal only cares about the bad kids and glazes the heck out of them the vice principal over reacts for no reason actually both of them do. The teachers only really care when your failing most don't even know how to teach and it's honestly the reason why my grades and multiple other kids grades started dropping grading more F's then A's. This school doesn't do nothing about bullying that's why the kids don't care anymore. Overall this school sucks it's only fun because of making friends. This year only 6th grade got to have an assembly and other grades were canceled just for a small group of students. Take my advice thank you for reading.

The middle school failed my child this school year. There's a notorious group of students that…read moresystematically bully new kids or someone outside their circle and the worst part, these students are favored among teachers. Multiple complains to the principal resulted in NOTHING! Only a check mark talk with the offenders and the vicious cycle goes on. It's a disgrace that teachers only promote their favorites to win competitions like Science fair. The middle school drastically lacked any fun or engaging events, fundraisers or activities that encouraged team work and inclusion of parents. There was only one field trip throughout the year and no promised end of year concert that even public schools have. The end of year award ceremony was unfairly selective. Throughout the year we got Zero photos from any teacher showing a school day, so it feels like this year just fell out equation with no memories to look back to. There's no graduation ceremony for 5th graders either, which they truly deserve. Since the new owner took over, the school environment (especially in upped grades) is rapidly deteriorating. And it's not surprising, the owner lives outside the country and rarely shows up. My gut feeling was right when I checked the school website before we enrolled and it was generic. And that's how this year felt, generic! A generic website with no teacher names, stock photos of students, there's nothing there that shows actual student life or curriculum or shows any photos of the teachers. This place is about squeezing every dollar they can from paying parents, while failing on delivering the fair support and equal opportunities every student deserves.

This year has been a joke for my daughter. She said she's had the worst year since she started…read moreschool. She complained about daily bullying, degrading or disrespectful comments from some kids in upper grades, because apparently, teachers combined 5th, 6th and 7th grades in the same classroom. School administration is not properly addressing the bullying issue either and I heard the new owner is missing in action, never present and it shows. We as parents were never invited to any classroom event, where we could engage with students, teachers and other parents. There's also no student counselor on site, which upper grades really need. This school needs to step up with its upper grades policies, so every student feels appreciated and having the support the need.

Didn't attend the first week of school because of a family emergency I notified the school to get…read moremy attendance fixed and they told me I would be just fine that I can just come back. I came back to me being unenrolled and locked from all school accounts. This school prioritizes there school skippers over there AP students as they support and help them unlike in my situation they just kicked me out.

My child has been going to this school for a while now. For the most part the school is what you…read morecall an authentic high school experience coming from out of town to from what we are originally used to. They have various clubs for students to engage in, the school is huge and Ms Rivera was very instrumental in making sure my child's transition to classes were smooth as well as promptly handling any issues related to academics. She was great and very professional ! My child is currently adjusting to the school well. I also love how there is a process dedicated to ensuring the safety of drivers and pedestrians but today was different. One of the security guys; not the elder looking one with the glasses but another one who usually directs the flow of traffic with him and is usually pleasant (look kind of like Steve Harvey, bald head) was not so pleasant today. Before today there are times when I payed attention to see that he has only been attentive to one side in regards to flow. Never said anything just used my driving skills. Today was a day I had to look both ways as I usually do then look ahead to see if I could go and because his attention was elsewhere. I saw that there was no traffic or students so I proceeded to go without his instruction and immediately I assume because I had shades on he thought that I wasn't paying attention. He was very rude and nasty and questioned my ability to see although I continued to be polite so after a while I disregarded EVERYTHING he said after because at this point you are arguing while children are trying to cross and drivers are leaving with their families. I took off my glasses to show you that I see you. He also went as far as to say that "if you have a problem my boss name is yadada Yadaaa ya". So I'm like ok. You are too comfortable giving me your boss name as if I'm not going to call and you're flat out yelling in the middle of you needing to focus on traffic. Immediately while driving home I gave a call to the head of security and he seemed to be receptive of my complaint. Hopefully before the security gets out of character next time he'll think twice and look both ways before he gets mad at a driver for exercising their discernment on whether to proceed against the road or not because I was in the right. At the end of the day no one was hurt or injured because the path was clear. You can't direct traffic and only pay attention to one side. Also as a person that deals with people on a day to day basis you should know how to bite your tongue get out of your personal feelings to ensure everyone is safe instead of arguing with me having students confused as to if they can cross or not because you are angry.
