Inlet view is a great community school where the teachers actually know every single students name. It is a small school and students get the attention they need. Teachers are friendly and involved and parents seem to be pretty involved as well.

Poor parent involvement. Isn't really a neighborhood school anymore as many kids from poor academically achieving areas are being bused in. Teachers don't respond to email or questions from parents.
