I had no help with my applying to my colleges from my counselor, but other than that the school is a pretty good learning environment .

The Sparta BOE currently spends all its time and financial resources on bogus culture war initiatives such as book banning. The schools are over crowded, resources are being removed, nurses and teachers are being cut or resigning and our children are paying the price. Their ineptitude ended up in a...

When she got to the high school it was an even better success in both academics and outside the classroom. I cannot tell you...
