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.

You will find some hidden gems in the teachers, but overall I would say there are not too many great teachers. There are a few that go above and beyond, the ones that do their job, and then the ones that don't care at all. The administration staff is also not very helpful, nor are the counselors or principals. They talk to you once about something and if you are not persistent the issue will not get resolved.
