- Reviewed by a Parent/Guardian on August 07, 2009 (Rating: 5 / 5) Report As Inappropriate
- I have had a student graduate from Byrd and one who is a rising junior. I have seen all types of students working together to solve problems. The teachers have good control of their classess and the students take the responsibilityof their own work.
