School Reviews
| 3 I dont feel like the teachers are concerned with student to student relationships at all. Good or bad. If a student or parent has a problem, they seem so act as though it is a personal inconvenience for them. This needs to change quickly. - Posted by Parent - concerned |
| 5 I recommend this school especially for students with a talent who would otherwise not be spotlighted in a larger school. If you also want a family atmosphere and an opportunity for your child to feel included, this is the school for you. "Connecting with Every Child" is our motto. This community is dedicted to keeping a good school. They saved it from fiscal distress a couple of years ago through fundraising and hard work. Our literacy scores are good, as are our ACT scores (2012). The football team went to state last year (2011)and the girls'' basketball team won state in division 3 (2012). We push academics as well. We wish we had more students in the AP program in high school, though. Enroll and give us some students who wish to excel. - Posted by Teacher - novak |
