My daughter has special needs and is thriving at this school. Their SPED department, administrators, and teachers are all so supportive and motivating. Communication is wonderful, and we are all able to work together to make any changes necessary almost immediately.

Still no separation of Church & State. Good news for you if you can stand the hypocrites. Kids get extra credit for turning in papers related to the bible, or attending the teachers church. If your kids miss school you will hear about it three weeks later via snail mail, sad in this day of email, cell phones & text messaging.
