Well to adress the above comments. The staff is hard working and dedicated. The school can not control the sizi of the classroom or many other aspects such as extra curricular, or music. This is something that comes from the school district itself. Parents do not realize that staff fights for things and are denied, although they the teachers are the ones who know what the students need. As for the students, many are unruly, again, this does not have anything to do with the staff. Many parents are not around and offer no support in their child's education. This is where the lack of control stems from.

Not enough team work from the school and faculty. No parent participation with the home and school or any school activities. The only extra curriculum is computer class and art class. They have no music class and barely have an art class. Not enough teachers to cover the size of the class. Almost 30 students in one classroom and some of the classes are split classes teaching two grades. No positive support from the principle who prefer not to award the graduating class. After School program has the same aspects. Not enough counselors to cover the amount of students. If you want your child to have a good education send them to a school with less children in the class so they can have that one on one focus and attention. Also to a school where the faculty treat the children like there own, with Love and Respect.

Many students here are lazy and foolish and goofy while there are few special students that deserve to be attending worthier schools. This school has low standards of academics and school participation in academic activities. All students here are underestimated in intelligence and there is a underlying bias in the faculty.
