    Why do this?

    If you want to see your kids dangling like Christmas ornaments send them to waicol, quickest way to have your kids disappear from your life due to the misery this school brings them.

    Ick. Just... Ick.

    this school is a bit of a dump. there's trash everywhere, and wrappers of protective sexual items all over the floor outside. it's gross. the students all complain about how their teachers hate themx, or just don't teach. not all teachers are bad, some can be great! but still... either, it's a free public school. you get what you get, i guess...

    Teachers are often awful, no communication whatsoever

    Awful. Some of the teachers definitely are nice, but there's also quite a few (Mrs Katia, Mrs Jones) who are insecure Karen's and take it out on their students. One of my English teachers when I went here, yelled at me in front of the class because I went to another English teacher for help.

To stop vaping in bathrooms, they...

    Very honest opinion from an ex student.

    Looking back as an adult I am discussed in the way I let some of these teachers and staff members talk to me and treat me. If you do not excel academically or physically and are just simply above average you have no place at this college. The amount of bullying and tragedy that has taken place at this college for the duration of time I was there is appalling. If you are planning on sending your child to this college I strongly advise against it.
