We moved here 4 yrs ago and couldn't be happier. They did amazing at excelling my student. The music program is phenomenal and he found his people.

For children with special needs, this is not an ideal school. Administrators play games and give NO services. If you don't do what they want, they start bullying you and bullying the child. Refused to give extended time on exam if I don't sign amednded IEP. I am appalled!
