(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - To think that my daughter goes to this school. I am amazed over the low test scores that are posted. to think that she came from a GATE program to this school. No wonder she is so bored! Not to mention that they never told me that they didn't have the high academic program that is needed to challenge her. I am currently looking into placing her in a better school that will challenge her intelligence!
