We had nothing but problems at this school! My child was honor roll the year before, but when we came here her grades dropped. Had to fight with the principal for fair grading, office staff shares everyone information with random visitors. Oh there's just too much to write! Don't put your children through it! Pick another school, really pick another district- their just as bad! I can not stress this enough! Save your yourself, your child and your family the stress!
