I've been in this school for several years and I've got to say, it's not getting any better after the removal of the yrdsb teacher of the year. After that event, the school has gone through several changes in vice principals and principals. The classrooms are fairly big and are a great learning environment with many great teacher there to support you. However, there are a few teachers that can be very lazy. In one case, I had a teacher who made us do assignments that we're never even marked. The few times that our tests were marked were by a few students in my class that marked it. There are also a few teachers that don't treat us fairly as I've had many encounters with cases of favoritism shown to a few specific students in certain issues. There are also a lot of false assumptions made and certain people are very quick to judge before they know what's happening. One occasion was on track and field day which happened not too long ago. We were cheering on the grade 4's running the 100 meter as it was their first time ever participating in track. We were shouting out words of encouragement like "let's gooo" , "keep going!" and "you got this" just to name a few and one of the staff at the school called us out thinking we were dissing the students which we were clearly not. When it came to our grade, we were cheering on our friends by calling them the names that they are fine with us calling them in our friend group. After that another one of the staff had walked over and confronted us and told us "no more negative comments" which had us baffled. These are just a few cases to give you a better understanding of the school and what your children may experience being here. Overall this school used to be good but I'm not sure what happened to it.
