What people are saying

by a teacher
Friday, December 12, 2014

Having been a teacher there I can tell you first hand that there is no backbone support from Administration. The kids are continuously allowed to drag their feet, pretend that they don't understand, be lazy and say "its too hard" without trying, and then when it comes to test the Administration doesn't want to receive a bad grade so they insist that you provide them with a three answered multiple choice test so they have a shot of passing. The amount of disrespect and defiance is unmatched in Orlando and on both ends. Close Quote
