My child started attending this school a few months ago and I have come beleive all of the horror stories that I have been told. The administration is the worst I have ever seen. These kids are disciplined for the most ridiculous things. The kids here are spending more time in the office WAITING to be seen, then actually learning in the classroom. The curriculum is all over the place, no structure. Don't even get me started on the conferences. I want to know how a school can be run so poorly for so long with nothing being done to rectify this. They can't say it's to get the kids ready for high school, because the high school is run more efficiently then this one is. This school is in drastic need of restructuring!!!

i haven't even went here yet but i know that we have to wear uniforms a certain way. Barely any accessories. HOW DO THEY EXPECT US TO BE CREATIVE AND SHOW IT TO THE WORLD! I heard there are many cliques. Exp: if your skinny and pretty, you'll be popular. I really don't like that even though i would most likely be in that clique. I am dreading going to this school! They write you up for everything i heard. And they could care less about grades they just make sure you look right and stuff! I HATE THIS PLACE!
