School Reviews

Unfriendly to outsiders. Overall scores posted online are untrue. The kids are given the answers to tests in advance. That is not learning. Bullying is swept under the rug because it hurts the school rating. They don't even record the incidences, so the ratings are wrong. As a military family that moves around a lot we have seen some great schools in other states, this school is a solid 1 star. Do not send your kids here. Homeschool them. Therapy to undo the damage caused by this school will be expensive! If you love your kids, homeschool them.
