Tuesday, February 21, 2017

This is a school ran by a principal who cares about her personal agenda and how she looks in the eyes of others. The kids education is not put first. If you look at the rankings of this school you will see. This school is ran In the "good ole boy" mentality. This school a d half of its employees are fake and the children are suffering. The ones who care and stand up for the kids are the ones who suffer and or let go from their positions. This school and county school leaders must be 're evaluated and replaced with ones who loves kids when no one is watching. Close Quote
