My children attend Fisher's middle and high schools. My son is in grade 10 and my daughter is in grade 8. Today was my daughter'a first day of Leap, she was quite nervous but then told me that the teachers really helped her calm down. My daughter is a bad test taker and gets very worked up when she takes an important test. She takes all honors courses and so does my son. They like most of their teachers but, like all children, despise others. But I do think Fisher is in need of the money, every bit counts. While Fisher has it's problems, I wouldn't send my kids any where else.
