What people are saying

by a parent
Tuesday, July 17, 2018

A little disappointed about the favoritism when it comes to white children compared to blacks but all in all their should be equal opportunities for both no matter the race. I’m sure looking from
My point of view another parent that is Caucasian would not see it knowing there kid is being held to a higher degree and given opportunities. I hate to walk in a school in feel that my child is not good enough by the content of their grade of hair and skin. That is the only thing about this school that really makes me not want to be apart of anything here. All in all this a great elementary school to go to around Aiken, SC where you know your kid will learn. Close Quote
