Let me preface this with having contemplated quitting before I even began. I signed up for a…read morewomen's beginner skate class, with my impending 40th birthday on my heels. I pulled into the parking lot, with an alarming number of vanity plates, thinking I must be at a realtor convention. Nope. I was met with a bustling rink of derby practice as I checked in and made my way to a bench to pad-up. The derby practice took place next to us beginner fish. It is a sight to see, but I remained focused and somehow made it through. Sarah is the beginner's instructor, and I'll be honest -she kicked our collective butts on day one. She has pushed me to try techniques and tricks that I would never have thought possible with what little skill I walked in with -barely being able to stand and way too out of shape to consider strapping myself in skates. I will say that I left on day two having attained so much confidence that I am now comfortable going to a rink solo. It IS a commitment, being 4 (1 hour) classes for 4 weeks, but if you are on the fence then "Do it Lady"! I give it a resounding 5 stars. Wtg, Sarah! Thanks for unlocking a new ability that I thought was gone for good!

I'm a former student that transferred in during my junior year and have witnessed and experienced…read morenumerous alarming situations. I struggled with transferring credits, and my grades slipped as I could not catch up despite asking for help and going to tutorials. As I was playing catch up, completely overwhelmed, the college counselor disregarded me and told me maybe college just isn't for me, and wouldn't help me. My mom is from Germany and my dad went into the army at 17 so neither were able to help me, so it was detrimental when I didn't receive actual counsel from my school. I was personally bullied by the MCJROTC teacher due to being the child of an army vet. The teacher told my mom that maybe if she'd buy her lunch, I'd get more benefits in class, at which point I was removed from JROTC. And even more alarmingly, there have been sexual assaults throughout the years, including last year, that the school has relentlessly swept under the rug. This being actual rapes that are not being pursued with legal action by campus police, but rather victim blaming after full blown rape, and simple 3 day suspension of the rapist being the only action taken. This is not the only time this has happened and there have been numerous teachers throughout this district that have had relations with minors. I am appalled by the schools actions in academics, student/teacher and student/student interaction, and even legal situations like the rape of a special needs student. Something has to change, this is not a safe place for learning or even being.
