- Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on April 21, 2010
- Rating:
(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - No leadership as even supported by teachers survey in spring of 2009. Don't send gifted, curious children here or they'll be punished for asking too many questions. I had to transfer my son in the middle of the 7th grade out of this school The best decision I've ever made! I finally saw my son being motivated again and getting real education.
