Charter schools pale in comparison to city schools in every aspect! The staff and students at charter schools never seem to be able to meet the state requirements as compared to the city schools.
8/1/2011
This school is really trying to help its students and make it a school that the students and teachers are proud to be at. My son teaches there and he really cares about his students.
