  • Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on September 11, 2010
  • Rating: 5 (5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • The school has more than 2400 students and more than 60% of then have no idea about respect. The discipline is to weak and really does not help anybody. It is incredible to see how students use vulgarity in front of teachers , assistants principal and nothing happen to them. If you really take care and love your children these is not the best environment for them.
