i agree completely with the statement that this school is run like a prison. the administration believes the campus is "theirs"(implying ownership) and doesn't make any effort to identify with the children or their parents!

Covington students are unruly, wild, and treated as criminals who are guilty until proven innocent. The administration does not care for the students and could be easily compared to prison wardens. Fights are common and safety is slim to none. My advice: DO NOT send your child here if you value their education or their safety.
