- Reviewed by a Parent/Guardian on October 30, 2009 (Rating: 5 / 5) Report As Inappropriate
- My niece WAS a student at this surposed Alternative school. This is more like prision.The children so very little school work and are treated like they are in bootcamp. These children are sent to these places for reasons that were not extrem enough for them to atten juvenille. the children are treated very crual and degraded amoungst there piers. This type of treatment will only make them more disobedient than they were when they first started the program. The parents of the children that attend the ACADEMY should take some responsibility and stand up to this system. These childrend deserve to be treat as humans and not punching bags.
