Least diverse, Hispanics over crowded school. Bad place! Low income illegal Hispanics.
1 6/1/2020
It's a very bad school, even though they say it's good it's not. Children here do a lot of inappropriate things. As a student, I've experienced a lot of students cursing and doing stuff not their age. And the worst in my experience is that there's ALOT of Hispanics. Mostly the whole school is Hispanic and the teachers mostly focus on the English learners. Smh.
