There's way too much homework and assignments that we have to complete in a short period of time, especially if we spend 8 hours doing work just to waste our own free time doing even more work after school. The school uniforms aren't terribly ugly, the fabric is just uncomfortably itchy. The principals are fairly kind from my experience, but the councillors aren't trustworthy at all. There's a variety of international languages to learn and extra english + numeracy support. The girls bathrooms have missing soap dispensers, but the girls bathrooms aren't necessarily disgusting. Ive heard from friends that the boys bathroom is incredibly unsanitary, and almost half of the stalls are missing doors.I have mixed feelings about the teachers at this school. Some teachers base you off of siblings they have taught earlier, and they clearly have favorites; though some understand how stressful it is to work as a student and actually try to help each struggling student individually. There's Friday prayers sometimes in the alt gym. Physical education is quite fun, the teachers take in some of the students ideas to make games more fun and enjoyable. In the winter, the school would make the older grades (division 3: grade 7,8, and 9) go outside in the cold for recess, while the younger grades would have indoor recess. We shouldn't be given detention at recess, because that's the only time we have to talk to our friends, socialise, and just be free of work. Recess is the only time we get a break. Last year, my teachers would go out of their way to make assignments fun and understandable, so everyone would enjoy school, especially in the lock down. That basically sums up what I have to say about this school.
A few days ago, my daughter was bullied by students, and when I reported them to the principal Mr Rabih el masri, took it seriously and contacted the students and their parents on the same day. I would like to thank him for his efforts to find a solution to stop bullying In order to provide a good and healthy environment for all students. Waiting for the cooperation of the parents and their children and the bus company to stop bullying .
