Open Quote If you are not rich or popular the teachers at this school care nothing about you or your needs. The teachers are VERY rude and disrespectful of children who need more help then others. This school as been sued by former students because of teachers and coaches disrespecting students. I moved my kids as soon as I could! Close Quote
