School Reviews
| 2 2/25/2011 If your child has special needs and need accomodations will not be assesed properly and accomdated to suit his disability. I also have found them to be discrimination against race. This is my personal and opinion and from personal experiences with the staff. - Posted by Parent - l.lam |
