I've been attending this school since I was in 8th grade and i cant say I've had a good experience. Faculty and staff act like they hardly care about their students and definitely show visible favoritism to some. They treat students unfairly depending on who you are.

We have enrolled our 3 1/2 year old daughter into the preschool program for the fall. Thus far, it has been a great experience!
