Lots of violence at the school. The school used to be good. Now is a school where kids fight a lot.

The school is a great place for student learning. There are a few issues with student altecations, but that is true of all schools. I have enjoyed working with the staff and the administration. My child has been able to be very successful there. Way to go Violetville. Keep up the good work!
