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.

The school is great if they would get rid of the teacher with domestic violence charges pending. This same teacher is a substitute bus driver that drives very erratic and has almost ran off into a ditch.
