School Reviews
2 4/29/2022
This is mostly a good school with good teachers BUT there is this one high school teacher who doesn't seem to be following protocol correctly. This teacher waits till almost Friday to give out essay assignments to students for the sake of attendance, which I promise will screw up the student's weekend AND be honest, there isn't enough time to get it done considering all the other teachers have the schedule planned from the beginning of the week. Fridays are already full enough, this teacher needs a hint. No names, but think the subject ENG.
