School Reviews

School mite is wonderful but the lack of buses is a problem. Parent pickup while the bus is late orca no show is a mess. The front desk needs to be able to handle child pick-ups if your going to have busses routinely very late or not showing up. I was tired of the rude duo at the desk. The office was no better.
