Terrible three year school experience. The faculty speak of zero tolerance and taking disciplinary actions against bullies and harassment, but it is truly false. The brats that obviously have no future will push, harass, and taunt students in a lower position of power and then come into the next day with no repercussions. After just one year full of torture, there were no punishments and the end of the year was just as bad as the beginning. All the focus that should be targeted at bullying is instead focused on inspecting every mouth in hopes of finding someone chewing gum. I am honestly, truly surprised that there has yet to be any major violent incident in this school brought on by the bullying. I remember one year there were bomb threats and false fire alarms almost every other week. No less than at least 10 or more hours, spread over the course of one school year, were spent standing outside due to false threats. Some of those days were not limited to clear weather, but also during snow and rain. This school truly provided a terrible middle school experience.
