They put special education at a minimum, the principal could care less about bullying or the affects on the students. She simply cares about her numbers. They fake the special ed kids standardized testing, or used to, to get higher numbers and recognition.

I am an employee and my 3 children all went to Center, it was our home school. The teachers are caring and wonderful, the best my children had! The staff has been great to work with or I wouldn't have stayed for over 10 years! A great school with lots of diversity!
