The school is mostly all good things. Just actually care about making decent grades and you'll be fine.

This school gives not a care in the world for its students. I have been bullied. All my friends have been bullied. The school rules are shockingly bad. You are not allowed to wear hats. I checked there website, and they don’t give a real reason. Your kid would learn more if you could throw them in a cardboard box on the street.
