"Hello, I'm moving to 8th grade and this school is not as good as you've might imagined it. First off, going from class to class is a big rush and often times some are late. Yes we can all agree that some students like to cause trouble for themselves and others. Other than that, students often have to go through stuffed up hallways with kids blocking the way or just when another kid gets in trouble and the staff have to get in the way and lecture them into what they have done wrong. Another thing is the school lunch which they have claimed to be "healthy" but are pretty poor quality morsels that are supposedly called food. Sometimes fights do go through but the staff manages to stop these barbaric clashes between students. It is also very important to find the right group of kids or else they can influence on you negatively. There are also mean and disrespectful pupils if you stay in the school long enough. The student government is also pretty much useless as they do not deliver promises as they promised. The school has its perks, but overall it is still not such a great school."

"Hi, I am a student who just got out of 7th grade. I would like to mention that, although many other reviews say this school is great, it is more of fallacy, and somewhat incorrect. The principals, and supposed "leaders" of this school, aren't involved with the students in any way other than making new rules prohibiting students from doing certain things. For example, a student is not allowed to use electronics at lunch time. Why? I asked a teacher in which case they would respond with a unreasonable answer such as: "Those are the rules" or "It disrupts the educational process". Another thing, students there, aren't very friendly. You will come across rude, unintelligent, annoying, and etc. I some how found a group of friends who were the opposite of the lesser three. The teachers, some are great, some are bad. I had honors for all 4 of my main subjects, and had reasonably nice teachers. My favorite one was science class, Dr. Lamia is an example of what a great teacher should be. Anyways, the honors classes were great, but when I went to my other subjects full of regents kids, Well it was pure mayhem in the classroom. This isn't really a great school, but there are worse. - Don F."

"I totally agree we should have more time to get from class to class! And I wish the dances had some sort of games to make them more fun. The teachers are really nice and are doing their jobs significantly well. I think the food tastes great!"
