(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - If you are not part of the good ol boy network, your student will struggle the whole way through this school. Some teachers are not professional and allow personal feelings to dictate how they treat individual students. These are paid professionals and I would hope that tax dollars are being used to provide mature individuals to guide and teach our children to become productive members of society. I would think twice before enrolling my child in this school. WAKE UP CENTERVILLE!!!!!!!!
