Sherman Middle School
I love the school it has various anti bullying conferences and programs for teachers and students and does not tolerate any bullying. It's a warm environment and the classes are the best. Lots of fun projects and trips but we still learn a lot. Also if you get bad grades the teachers will have a one on one with you and talk about how to improve.
