What people are saying

Thursday, February 16, 2017

Open Quote If you have children that require extra help, don't count on getting it at this school. Don't believe the test scores either. Administrators admitted that everyone's test scores went down for the year 2016. They blamed it on the "type" of test, and not the poor education. If you have a problem with a teacher, don't count on getting support from the principal or assistant principal. If you have questions, don't count on teachers responding to emails. What you can count on is, ALOT of homework, and parents doing the teaching at home. Teachers don't evaluate their teaching strategies, they just give bad grades. They don't take responsibility for anything. BVSD are OVERRATED!!! Close Quote
