School Reviews
| 2 While I was here, the school was a 7/10, but favoritism when it came to a certain administrator's daughter/niece (I can not remember), was absolutely horrific and that girl could get away with anything. The girls' name is Eva Sanchez, and hopefully she has changed her ways. - Posted by Student/Alumni - Unknown |
