Not good. Run like an alternative school. Extremely rigid and discipline oriented. Not a college prep at all. Hours are far to long for children of this age and God forbid your child ever receive after school detention, they'll miss dinner as they don't get out until 6pm. Found staff and teachers to be uninformed and poorly educated. Just not pleased at all. This school, I've found like most Kipp schools, fails to meet even the most basic of educational criteria for a charter school program.

WOW! WOW! WOW! What an amazing group of motivated and inspiring faculty that have come together to mold our future generations at this school!!!! I have to take a moment to recognize what I have personally witnessed within the individual teachers and administration...they not only emphasize continued education but they practice what they say! One teacher even graduated from a local university and his very own students attended his ceremony! Now tell me this isn't inspiration at it's truest form!!! The teachers have even come to my home to have one on one meetings with us before school even started to introduce themselves to us and our child! MIND BLOWN! Who does courteous things like this anymore?!?! THIS TEAM OF TEACHERS! THAT'S WHO! The faculty loves the children and it shows thru their everyday interactions. They even have children from other schools come and visit them! Ok Ok enough about the awesome teachers I know, but truth is, my daughter has never looked forward to school as much as she does now. She is in their Cross Country program as well as Spanish classes and is now the best runner in our family as well as corrects me with my TACO BELL SPANISH lol! And she's only ten! I can only wonder what the future holds for her as she continues to attend this school and advances in their Spanish and Athletic programs and other electives as they become available. Thank You For teaching my daughter that furthering her education is something amazing to look forward to!
