Mrs. Yates is a really good teacher and explains stuff, unlike SOMEBODY that''s a 7th-grade teacher on the Owls team. Anyways, Mrs. Yates makes math fun and I''ve learned a lot so far and it''s only been a few weeks.

They have a rule that if your homework is one day late, you will receive a 50% automatically. This is hurting not only the students but the state of Georgia. Also, one teacher, Ms. Burke - has recently stated that if the homework is turned in, but not done her way - you will automatically receive a 0 for your homework.
Would not recommend this school or this math teacher.
