What people are saying

by a parent
Monday, November 29, 2010

None of the administrators or principals take responsibility for the quality or lack there of. They only look at your childs test scores to evaluate him/her. If you have a good test taker, its fine. If not, there are lots of problems. My child has a B average in class work, yet falls short on the standardized tests. Their only answer was to put her in "special" classes. The principal also informed me that I had "no choice" in my childs education. They were only informing me that a change would be happening. Last time I checked, I have many choices! This school is not one of them! Close Quote
