My daughter goes here and the school administrator focuses only on athletics. They do not have a library for middle or high school students. There is a small selection in the Lower School, but access is restricted to upper school students. They aslo under pay teachers and are not required to have state certified teachers. We are in the process of removimg her from this school. Close Quote
