If you'd like a school that strictly teaches a test so it gets good scores, this is it. The 5th graders don't even have free range to choose their own science experiments for the mandatory science fair!!! My child's homework when they went here even referenced EXACTLY WHERE in the SOL this homework pertained to.
If you'd like a school that teaches to your child, this is not it. They are so concerned with looking good, they don't even have the special needs kids go to this school. They've made arrangements to bus them to a different school farther away. Talk about a way to NOT teach kids about diversity, acceptance, etc... Close Quote
