Open Quote Security of this school is questionable, let's just say that due to an employee tyring to take the law into her own hands and calling an out of state parent in attempt to have the children "snatched" by that parent after local Sheriff's Deputies told the employee that the Mother had custody of the children, and the man she was giving the information was not even the children's legal biological father. But she continued to the point that she was calling the man on her personal cell phone after the Deputies informed that the Mother was the only costidian. We had to remove the children for their safety. Scary! Close Quote
