High School for Arts and Business
I really like A&B but i feel as if this year its gotten worse. don't get me wrong its not as bad as some other public schools but its slipping. there have been more fights this year than my previous two years at the schoo. the rules about the bathroom and having to have a pass to go out of the classroom of if your late to class weren't really enforced but this year because of all the fights between freshmen they are being enforced and its not fair to the good students. Still i like this school its a family, all the staff really care about you. Teachers and principal alike. Ms. Zambrano goes out of her way to be friendly and talks to the students. She cares about us as students.
