- Reviewed by a Parent/Guardian on March 12, 2008 (Rating: 1 / 5) Report As Inappropriate
- I don't see how the children are suppose to learn when you have over 30 children in one class room. This is not set up for our children to learn it is set up for them to fail. As a single parent it breaks my heart to know I have to send my child to a school that is not teaching our children because the classrooms are over crowed.
