I love the involvement between the facility and parents. Love how if there's something going on with my child their teacher will contact me directly to find a solution to the problem.

Dewey L Carter is an awesome school. I have no problems with the teachers. I am very much involved in my son's daily schooling and his grades are the best.

My Children attend Dewey L Carter. I feel like it is a terrible school. I decided next year that my children will attend another school in Florence district one. I feel like they treat some children differently then other students.
