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.

They have a new principal she is really good however the kids there are absolutely horrible. My kids went for a year and it was horrible all year I couldn’t wait to take them out. Teachers are very unorganized and not very engaging.
