It is a fun school with a lot of nice kids. The majority of the programs are really fun and everyone calls one of our gym teachers dj Linda hehe. We have a usealll amount of homework and if your kids are younger then I suggest you enroll in moharement elementary school. Just cause I went there, the playground is ok there are no slides or swings though and they are building a new middle school

Even academically gifted students who go from ORMS to private schools have to take remedial language classes to catch...

Middle school is an adjustment for both parents and children. A heavy emphasis is placed on students taking respo...
