"I pulled my child out of this school as the students control the classes and the teachers are tired of dealing with so many problem students. Every school has problem students but an administrator told me that this school is inundated. The goal the principle sets for the school is a 2.0 average and sends a recorded phone message stating this to all the parents every mid term and report card that is sent home. Low expectations bring a low academic result."

"This year they decided to force us to buy school shirts buy not letting us send our children in polo type shirts. My son has been going there for 2 years already and I have now got tons of polo shirts he cant wear. Whos brilliant idea was this?"

"I think some of the teachers should give special attention to the kids who are falling behind. Have a connection with the student for the reasons why. Have a little more compassion and spend after school time to help them."

"I am an 8th grade student attending this school. This school has no organization. What is taught academically is extremely simple. The students are unruly during class time and rarely listen to the teacher. I would not recommend this school to any student. You will be greatly disappointed."
