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.

Most of the teachers are helpful and want you to succeed, and the very few care but don't teach except every once in a while but expect you to know everything they taught in a wide period of time and aren't consistent with their grading. Overall though everyone cares and is consistent with their teaching and do a good job at it.
