School Reviews

Love the school, love the approach to outdoor learning and environmental issues! Being an ADHD kid at this school helped me have breaks in my learning and not always sitting in a classroom for 8 hours a day and is very hands on! Teachers go above and beyond here! Staff are caring, friendly, and fun! I graduated in 2017 and hope they have improved on bullying policy since then as several in my class experienced it and were told to be the bigger person instead of the school applying their zero tolerance policy and reprehending the bullies. They were too concerned on the graduation numbers instead of students who were being bullied. I'm glad to see Angie M. is no longer working with/interacting directly with students on a daily basis. She is good for the school and its image however not the students as she is childish, petty, and rude to anyone she sees fit. That's not the example you set in a school setting.

As a result, House democrats have taken up the issue in a new bill that would ban all forms of corporal punishment nationwide.
