School Reviews
| 2 Level of parent involvement is low. Academics program is on the low side with fewer offerings than in years past. Few extracurricular activities are offered. Lack of safety personnel and crossing guards. School does not participate in comprehensive background checks for all staff hired. - Posted by Parent - dodge |
