School Reviews
| 5 3 words: enroll here definitely. I am a special ed 5th grader named Miranda and this school has got to be the best. The new dance and drama teachers of 2015-2016 class have to be the best. The speech teacher is the best too. Now let me get on with the teachers. The teachers are the best. They are perfect and are very happy to help any student. They are nice, but no too nice, and at the same time, not too mean. 5/5 :D BROCKTON EAGLES FTW(FOR THE WIN!) - Posted by Student/Alumni - miran |
