I love charter schools. Theres a lot more diciplined education and less worrying about what the kids are doing to each other as is in pblic school.

This school is awesome. It is no secret that the key to a successful education system is parental involvement. At Life School (a school of choice) parents are required to participate in their children's education in order for their children to remain enrolled in the school. Parents earn points by attending parent updates, classroom observation, parenting classes, and volunteering. Parents must earn the required points each semester.
The mission of the school is to train leaders with life skills for the twenty-first century by establishing strong academics, character training, and a parenting program.
What a blessing this school and staff have been to our family.
