What people are saying

by a parent
Monday, January 7, 2013

My kids are always coming home sick. It says on the front door they are an accredited school, but they are no longer. I used to babysit for two families whom took their kids out because of the poor faculity. If you ever have a complaint for this school in person, they will all laugh when you walk into the door; thinking you are stupid for bringing up the school issues. My son has gotten bullied for two years and not a single person has done anything. I am pulling my kids from this school, myself and three other parents, to homeschool through www.k12.com.
