I truly wish my daughter didn't have to go to this school. I never get responses from her teachers. She was also hurt at school fell on the steps. No ice was put on her contusions and by the time I got to see the engeries it was very bruised and swollen. With several bruises.

We live just down the street and choose for 9 years to pay private tuition instead. Our $40m in property tax money was certainly not for our benefit.
