Toyon Middle School has recently began a mission to make the school a happier place, through respect, compassion, and opportunity and I don’t think it’s going to work for many valid reasons I am ready to share with whomever it may concern. In my twelve, almost thirteen, years of life I have found that kids, and adults alike, only show you what they want you to see.
