    "I saw that some of the teachers at this school were more acceptant of their students. However, what was horrifying of this school was that their were incidents of bullying, harassment, and discrimination. The pupils curse excessively and bully their peers by their status. I have been the frequent victim of their harassment. Including how they used as "property" and purged me out like I was "toxic." Many of the adults do not respect the pupils as if they were adults, instead they also engage in that shallow, hypocritical behavior that involves putting the students down and throwing them into the detention table as the students would not quiet down. The students then continue to act shallowly by making fun of other people. Some of the teachers do not provide a happy learning environment, instead they blame and yell at the students as if they were absolutely "petulant." The students in retaliation, talk back at the adults and still act foolishly despite the disciplining consequences. Age discrimination is a common issue present in this school. A lot of the students act immature, shallow, and mean while the adults act choleric, unfair, and hypocritical around students."

    "I am a parent of a student presently the teachers are helpful and the principal is awsome. But.....The secretarys or aids that work in the general office are rude and nasty. They never say good morning and you always have to ask them can someone help me numerous times before they come to your aid. If they dont like there job they need to quit."

    "I've been a student at 74 for a good chunk of time. I personally think it's an excellent school. The teachers are very professional and experienced. However, getting to each class is a bit of a problem in this school. It is very crowded and is a bit of a challenge to transition from each class. Other than that, an excellent school."
