The school is great, faculty and staff really work to keep the parents informed, and work with my son to seceded. The classes offered keep my son excited.The one draw back is they don't have bus service, rainy days it's not fun.

There are some very disruptive students in the school. Some students threaten other students with physical harm. These students are disrespectful to the staff and other students. What ever is being "done" to stop it is not working.
