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.

It's very dirty, a lot of the staff i encountered were awful, the kids are even worse. i wouldnt recommend this school, everything is so oversexualized here and kids are homophobic/transphobic and racist. A "matured" girl can't show her shoulders but a guy can wear his pants down to his knees.
