The extra curricular activities are limited, poorly organized, and expensive.

Tutoring is supposed to help students but if your student doesn't improve or still needs help the teacher kicks them out of the tutoring group and brings in another kid to take their place so their numbers look better. This has happened in every tutoring group my first grader attended.

Students who need help or have questions are ignored and then punished because they didn't do their work quick enough.
