(Update from recently emoved Google review)…read more This is a long review and will change from time to time, but... Reflecting on my time from this high school, I have to say that I have mixed feelings, leaning more towards negative over time. Even though I made some to a lot of friends, a lot of other people made me feel quite uncomfortable with their assertion, unwelcomeness and unpleasantness. Even the teachers and staff were not the best at helping with me with my issues at times, with a counselor named Beltramo outright excusing a bully when they were hitting me quite hard despite me not doing anything to them. Now the teachers were not the best with how they handled students, with Centeno not being a pleasant experience, even if she got a little better later on before leaving her class. She always yelled and screamed in front of my ears when I made a small error when having a pencil instead of a pen, yelling "PUT THE PENCIL AWAY!" and also being quite short tempered whenever I didn't meet her expectations. But she was not the only one who made my studies and experience worse. Of note who made my experience worse was a former teacher named David Long. Although I tried to clear up an altercation with him, he was telling me that "people who wear black like you are troublemakers, unlike me". When I tried to tell former Principal Bill Sarty about what happened, he told me "don't take too long, kid" and then refused to update to me about Mr. Long after our conversation where I didn't become punished. One other was Librarian Patricia Pelfrey. Even long after I stopped making jokes in the library for a short while, she was unpleasant and surprisingly rude to me. Whenever I talked to her, she was being quite demanding and unsettling, telling me to "hurry up" and insulting me behind my back. She was quite short-tempered to me, despite giving her my gratitude and thanks long after I ceased my jokes around my friends in the library. Rest in peace to her, no one has to go through what she went through, but my criticisms have nothing to do with her passing or prior condition. Regardless, I did not have a pleasant experience with her at all, but I also hope her family is doing well. Not all of it was bad, even if it does outweigh the goods. A few of the staff, especially the attendance staff and a sweet lady into Spider-Man, gave me great life lessons that not everyone must be liked, not even some good people. And a lot of friends were fun, even if some of them were shortlived or even former friends that ended poorly. I especially had fun times with Gard, one of my favorite teachers who was quite resourceful and kind. And Yu, my all time favorite despite not starting well due to her initial unpleasantness that turned into genuine friendship. And I want to add one of the most important events that traumatized and psychologically scarred me, was about one classmate. After she ignored my apology about being furious at her and her friends in gym, she not only sexually harassed me about my "size" at one point, but when I criticized her about it she gaslit me into making me think that I'm making things up. That is why I hate 2016 & 2017, and I had to deal with some friends and family tell me that I'm "freaking out" and "stop feeling traumatized!", feeling minimized and underneath a lot of people. As a result, awful moments like these shattered me and ruined my perception of reality for years to come. And this happened 10 years ago, so is it really my fault for having trauma and still having thoughts about them for this long? In general, even though I tried to look on the bright side and find some positives, I believe the flaws outweigh the goods. It was not a great time to be in, especially after these moments plus a few grand tragedies with my former friends, to the point that it changed me forever for the worse overall. I'm sorry, family, I know I can look at the positives but that mindset minimizes what I've been through. Even if others had it worse than me, these are my experiences and they were not as pretty as one might think.
