    When it comes to bullying the school is somewhat, protective about it they make sure it doesn't occur, it still happens but it's not very common. Also not many people at the school are bullies, there a just a few.
    Students don't really go to games, although our boys and girls basketball team was undefeated both of the years that I attended school there.
