As an 8th grade student (as of 2022-2023 school year) I have been dealing with bullying and when i go to a teacher for help, they will either tell me to suck it up or they will encourage the bullying. When i go to the principal for help, the front office staff will tell me "He isnt here right now but ill leave him a message". Two weeks later i havent gotten a call up to the front office. The lunch food is horrible!!!! the chicken is cold, the milk has been sitting out for god knows how long and the lunch people are really rude. They stole money out of my account! And the teachers, some should get fired but elsewhere the rest of the teachers are average or excellent. The bathrooms are always broken and theere is little to no water that comes out of the faucets. The unirals always get clogged up and flood the bathrooms. The teachers are allowed to cuss at students and ive heard a teacher call a black person a monkey and a n***a. And when i went to report it the staff thought i was joking!! And some teachers throw stuff at students. lunches are expensive for the quality that the food is so i reccomend that you bring a lunch as long as possible. And your required to wear a certian uniform for P.E. which is like 15-20 dollars. Dress code is strict. but its all on girls not boys. As for the LGBTQ+ community supporters and pride supporters, you will be lucky to survive a school year without either getting a concussion by getting your head slamed into a locker door. The locker times are a bit off and you cant put anything in there except unused school items, watter bottles, devices, lunch boxes, and jackets. If you decide to play an insturment, be ready to spend a lot of money. as a clarinet player and a bass clarinet player,i usually spend 600 dollars a year on the insturments for items like reeds, ligatures, cork grease, swabs, maitnence, and cleaning tools. So i reccomend getting an insturment from music and arts but i dont reccomend getting an insturment from amazon, ebay or another website that is sold by a private seller as the insturment could be damaged. There are a few structural problems like cracking in the outer walls, water stains, and poorly sealed exterior doors. Otherwise i would reccomend going to another middle school like lovingood or Mcclure Middle school. read more
