We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

All of the teachers are so nice and great at their job. If you miss an assignment most of them will help you catch up quickly. The sports coaches are amazing also. There can be bad communication through the school and some things are not organized.

I would like to see more academic focus and less focus on sports. The focus on sports overtakes all the focus on academics. They do have a literacy grant, however, the academics aren't really that impressive to me.
