School Reviews
| 5 As far as teaching wise when my son used to attend school all teachers were very professional and helpfull and as far as the office faculty they don't seem to be on the same page and don't seem to know what they are doing. The head administrater/clerk speaks to people very unprofessional and rude. - Posted by Parent - const |
