As I am currently a student at this school, and I have been going here since the start of 7th…read moregrade, I know quite a lot about what goes on in and out of this location. First off, the school is great. The interior of the school is very clean and simple looking, and it is not overloaded with classroom art, cracks, or a lot of what my last school had (Which was Springfield School, and I will eventually write a review for that.) I am mainly going to be reviewing the Junior High section of the school, as that's really all I ever visited and know my way around completely. I honestly don't find it appropriate to name the teachers I've had problems with, but there is a few teachers who like to draw to assumptions a lot. I've seen several cases where a student got called out for doing something that he/she hasn't even done! I happen to be one of those students. I resist arguing with the teachers about it though, as it just makes the situation worst - it's basically a lose-lose no matter what you do. However, the punishments are severe at all - That's what I like about the school. It's not a harsh punishment nor is it something that wouldn't teach a bad child a lesson. Basically if you do something bad, you simply serve a lunch detention or something like that. Only rarely have I seen people even have to go to the Principle's Office. I think this school does a good job providing education. I am in the 8th grade, and even though I tend to struggle with school - I know a lot. A suggestion I do have to the school is for the teachers to not go so quickly - i don't know if there's a certain criteria the teachers have to follow but the pace most teachers go can confuse some teachers. Lunch: The lunch program is decent It's not terrible but it's not amazing either. I'm that one guy who sometimes makes my own lunch and sometimes takes a school lunch. The way we are set up to eat is very inviting, and allows you to socialize with people younger than you as well, meaning you can make a lot of new friends simply by eating lunch. One teacher I won't name always seems to be so strict at lunch though. If you turn around for like a second just to see where a noise was coming from or something, and she catches you - instant lunch detention. I don't find that very fair. So I would give the school a 4 star rating from my personal experience here. I still have a few months to go until graduation but this school is doing a good job preparing me for high-school .Like nothing, it's not perfect - there's a few flaws with the teachers, and most of them are basically opinion-based but other than that I enjoy it here. I fail to understand why there's been several new students here that transferred about a week after. By the way, I would like to remain anonymous. I am not "Josh" like my yelp says, as I don't want any staff to look at my differently because of my review. I just want to be a reference to parents before they send their children off to this school.
