This place isn't exactly a place you should send your kids if you want them to be a part of the betterment of society. I attended this place for about seven months and completed with ease.

The way this particular Job Core operates is very unorganized and careless. Mr. Jackson, Ms. Perry, Mr. Barry, Ms. Randal, Mr. Reynalds, Mrs. Mackenzie, Mr. Polke, Mrs. Dillard and Mrs. Sato are instructors/counselors that actually care though. Some of the people highest up like Mrs. Martin, Mrs. Kalema and Mrs. Atkins are all about making your stay as unpleasant as possible .

The instructors try their best, but some of the kids make it impossible. Considering the fact that they let just about anyone in, they have to get a better handle on screenings. I witnessed more than 15 fights, ran into people with drugs everyday and 85% of people on campus have a nicotine problem.

They tried convincing me to stay longer and take up another trade (likely to have a good student contributing to their bottom line longer), but I declined. I graduated because of basketball, good headphones, a couple good friends and perseverance.

Some people there are great and others are there because it s a place for them to lay their head at night. The hardest working, most under appreciated and caring people on campus are the cafeteria ladies.

Save yourself the heartache and pick another trade school. As I was leaving this place in 2014 it was under investigation...
