Great. School

Bully problem always and they gave zero resolution. They need to invest in better policies to resolve bully issues as they have none. This middle school is behind when it comes to controlling bullies
2 10/19/2010
This school has serious bully problems. They do not enforce their own handbook. A few of the teachers need to go back to school to learn a little thing called RESPECT. Public schools are full of idiots teaching our kids with no respect for our kids. I would not hire them to babysit my kids I feel they should be more qualified and we should hold teachers more responsible for their behavior.
