My elementary school experience was ok but as a student with dyslexia middle school and high school was a nightmare. The support for students with special needs is almost non existent because there is one special education teacher for grades 8 to 12. There are funding problems and administration problems. The lack of support for students with special needs must be addressed. Change in this area is essential for special needs students to succeed.

The school isn't up to the expectations. They care about uniform more then your academics, they throw opportunities at you but require you to pay. We barely have field trips, and we have lack of resources and funding.

The intentions of this schools seem positive but its not. It is important to have a staff that understands curriculum. It does not seem to be the case in this school. The atmosphere is somewhat hostile, I do believe that every child should be entitled to an atmosphere that focuses on discipline and...

I regret that I did not do more research on this school prior to sending my child here. The Board Of Education allows mayhem to take place even after presenting solid evidence of the horrific things that go on there. The Senior class is whittled down to a handful of students to give the appearance o...
