The school is amazing. The only problem I have with it is cussing and bullying. The cussing is ridiculous. The bus drivers and teachers hear it and do nothing. Also another thing is the vice principal is sooo mean. She yelled at us once for not being in a completely straight line. Over all 4/5 stars.
