This school may seem trashy or whatever you are thinking. I am a student that goes to this school so listen. There is one teacher that does start a little bit of mess but that is because he wants us to learn about life and how things are in the world. The students that you may have seen or met at this school may not be right for you. But I may add there are always good people in this world. Also, they give us a good amount of time to turn in our assignments. This is one of the best schools I have ever been to I love it and I highly suggest going to this school.

Alot of drama, bullying, and mess, wouldn't send my kids here. Learning is hard when kids can't be controlled by their teachers, and teachers start mess to.
