In my opinion I believe that this school allows all students from different types to come together and join clubs where they may feel at home and not alone. There are activities for all different arts such as Orchestra, Choir, Basketball, Dance and etc.

The teachers at this school are a helping hand and do seem to care about the future of the students, but when the student shows that they don`t care about their life the teachers seem to slack off in caring for them as well when they should continue pushing to move forward.
One of the very first things that was told to us as students was that we needed to treat each other with respect. Respect is what has the bullying under control in my opinion. Having respect and responsibilities allows the students to be smart enough to not harm one another as well as protect one another.
