We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The school is okay but there is a lot of things that needs to be worked on! I've been here for 2 and half years and i feel like i haven't learned much and still lost on a lot of things we talk about and feel like the teacher are not helping us like we need too!
