I'd probably say under a five, because for a public middle school, even in not the greatest neighborhood, it's pretty bad. I mean, there's no shootings and that, and no serious gang influence, but I just think that the classes are slow, the populous is stupid, and only a select few of the teachers really know what they're talking about. There's a website that I found called GreatSchools, and it gives my school a 2/10. Marvelous.
