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.

want your school to prioritize making sure you have no access to your phone instead of addressing the recent shootings, drug, alcohol and vape problems? wanna send your child to a place where they develop feelings of hurting themselves or even worse? Please dont send your kid here.
