School Reviews
| 5 THIS ISNT A REVIEW PER SE, EXCEPT TO SAY THAT THE AMERICAN FLAG THAT FLYS ABOVE THE SCHOOL IS BADLY TORN IN SEVERAL PLACES. THIS DOES NOT REFLECT WELL ON THE SCHOOLS LEADERSHIP. I SUGGEST IT BE REPLACED AND THE TATTERED ONE GIVEN TO A LOCAL BOY SCOUT TROOP FOR DISPOSAL. - Posted by Parent - NIGHT |
