School Reviews
| 5 My grandson, whom was gifted was able to attend here his senior year and able to excel in all subjects after being bullied excessively in mainstream high school. His young life was cut short Dec. 20,2019. He was happy and thriving at Boynton. I want to thank the staff there. - Posted by Parent - Grandma |
