Thursday, March 4, 2021

this school is hands down the best middle school in Southern Indiana and it's far superior to ANYTHING JCPS has to offer. If you care about your child you'll send them there. I don't need to say much, just look at their test scores. What is not mentioned is that their arts programs are the best in the state (they win every year). Love this school Close Quote
