Our family loves Day. Great principal, teachers, special ed programs, band teacher, etc. Focuses on important values to kids such as social emotional learning and antiracism.

Terrible middle school. Many people here are fake and even laugh at mentally disabled kids. Don't bring your child here if you aren't white or rich.

Arts program, especially chorus and theater, were exceptional. Academics were good. Administration needs to get better.
