It is the worst thing ever never do it ever again gotta be the worst of all time. It says it says it is the best of all time, but it really isn’t.

Horrible because some teachers care about your grades the rest don't. Almost all the kids here cut or have depression. So don't send your kids to this hell hold please for your kids help.

3 of my 4 children have attended this school. I have always been pleased with how well they have performed in this environment. The student - teacher ratio, and curriculum is fantastic. You can tell the teachers care and are realize how well students perform is a clear reflection of their ability to teach.

Mmm. Being a former student of this school, I can safely say ... DO NOT send your children here. The children are nasty and bully a LOT, and the teachers do little about it. The place knew about my depression because of it, but still refused to do anything. Got several Fs for missing school when they knew I was doing it from home and they should be sending asssignments over.
