through fellow allumni, I realize it wasn’t just me...the teachers that were hired totally ruined my and my 5 brothers and sisters lives through physical abuse. This school seems to enjoy hiring Bad-tists preachers as teachers that seem to enjoy pulling you in bathrooms and whipping you until blood comes out...i have considered many times of a federal lawsuits against this school/teachers for their hatred of children and their physical abuse of children...Richard “Dick” Debusk (and wife) and Sharon Braxton ...you will face your master Satan one day! i was one who suffered at your cruel hands!!!
