The overall experience was very mixed, some good teachers, some good ones, some bad sports and activities some good ones. The constant firing and hiring of teachers took a hit on many students education and the inconsistency from administrators on discipline created a lot of confusion. Overall, I enjoyed attending school here but there is definitely room for improvement in all areas.

School could improve on 504/IEP process and accommodations. Administration could also improve on following procedures outlined by state legislation.

When the 3 school district lost 25% of their enrollment that's expected to reach 30% they doubled the classrooms at the H.S. with a $20 million triple addition plus added the less than 1/2 full Granville Village school. With thi...
