I sent my daughter to this school hoping for the best & trying to get her ready for the real world & this thing called life . It was a waste of time , gas & money . I could have let her went to the public school she was suppose to go to. My daughter ended up in jail numerous times & getting shot . This school has no motivation, determination @ all.

There was no school nurse, no counselor, and the front desk lady was teaching social studies. They also have massive ego and pride issues that cause them to bully the students. There is no emotional support, no empathy for sick kids, and they sent my daughter back to class after a 2-day Covid quaran...
