What people are saying

by a parent
Wednesday, February 28, 2018

Our experience with this school has been completely terrible. They seem to try, but always fall short. They have no follow through on anything. Our son is ADHD and bipolar and has an IEP. They have not followed my son's IEP the way it was discussed, they have made promises they didn't keep, and have even went so far as to blame our parenting for the troubles my son has had. They constantly blame their short comings on lack of funding and have refused to transfer my son to the program for children with emotional/behavior disorders in Rushville. I feel like there is so much more they could do. I feel that my son is not getting quality education because he does not fit their idea of a "model student Close Quote
