School Reviews
2 10/10/2025
The administration of this school does not seem to be concerned about quality of staff, or doing the best it can for its students. Note the easy requirements for passing grades (lack of grammar, punctuation, spelling,etc.,corrections in course work). The lack of students participating in extra-curricular activities is a sure sign that students are not encouraged to participate by the administration. The low number of students in the sports programs and poor win records in those programs indicate again, the administration really are not student advocates.
