They did a great job with remote learning.

My daughter was to be an upcoming freshman this fall. I don''t know much about the school so I called the school to get more info. I was transferred to the guidance counselor and was told to look online to get the info. Not so friendly. So I then emailed both the principal and assistant directly. One month later no response from neither. There is no way I am sending my daughter to a place like this. Parents, do your research before applying!
