School Reviews

5   2/17/2010
This school is fairly good. It has enrichment and elective clases. There are also four cores (not including the enrichment and electives.) The school calls when there is something going on and the call is usually at about 7:00 at night. Bullying is sometimes an issue, though it will usually be addressed.
