American Indian Public Charter School is rigorous in its nature, where it pushes you to preform better in standardized testing later on in the year. They just got extracurricular activities going on, however it is not so great at being organized and presenting it self with all aspects for students to fulfil becoming well rounded students.

Complete disorganization. No amenities for the students. Inept administration. Teachers who are not qualified, hired at the last minute. A perfect example of what is wrong with education in America. Avoid like the plague.
