"Mixed experience"

I have mixed feelings about Meir Heath Academy. On the one hand, my child has made some great friends and enjoys the school's OPAL program. However, the school's communication with parents could be better, and there have been some issues with bullying. Overall, it's an okay school, but it could be improved.
