School Reviews

I feel I did not get the best education I could and was discriminated against for not having the right last name. The school said they were all about stopping bullying but the popular kids got to wear/ do whatever they wanted. I would never allow my children to attend a Clinton public school.

Poor quality education. No one wants to do anything about it. Parents are not envolved enough. School Choice is the way here.
