Open Quote May be good by Louisiana standards, but compared to other states it was horrendous. After 12 weeks I removed my daughter (4th grade) and home schooled her. The curriculum is disorganized and set up for failure. On the bright side, they do give the kids 2 sets of books - one for home, and one for school. Unfortunately, the teachers just randomly print out papers and the textbooks aren't used. I don't regret home schooling. Close Quote
