King/Chavez preparatory Academy is a school were Teacher's help and care about the student's .they become friends, which helps the child develop a sense of comfort in school and helps them focus more in there study's .also the school is small which help's them to get to know every one and have one to one conversion with the Teacher as will with the parent.The school is a strict non-bulling zone.They also count with a wonderful counselor how created last year a group named "The peace maker group",which help's with the child's leadership ability to involve .I personally think it helped my child become a better leader because before this school she was very shy with no friends now she sign up for every club there is.
