  • since the closing i have entered my children in the montessorri magnet school well apparently m darian has not learned much more in this entire school year. I also must thank Mrs.Johnson for having done incredible work if my darian didnt learn everything he did he would be nowhere now. how dare they said what they did, if children acted up discipline wAs enforced right away unlike were they are name calling etc terrible i need a good school for my children i want new charter school back i know that perhaps there is a way of reopening this year so i heard, please if u get this notice, let me know. great teachers, great staff also thank you to all the teachers, Mr.Hood & Staff i need a school for my children that will do what to you all have done.
