School Reviews

Reseda class of 2020. Besides not being able to graduate on stage. And having my son play football for 4 years as an honor student. I realize how much the school staff don't know about their students. Half of three so-called graduates don't attend school, nor do they pass to graduate. And Reseda are being a credit for having so many graduates. I'm very disappointed in this school. Our awards certificate were also miss spelled on top of everything.
