School Reviews

The school is terrible hate to say it. They are unable to effectively teach our young people. Bullying from children and teachers go on at this school. The teachers dont have a clue. We are from out of town and I had to move my children from this school into another district. Glory be to GOD I was able to! The storys you here you dont want to always believed, but when it personally happens to you there is no denying it.
