Very unprofessional administration. After driving several hours to attend the school's graduation was turned away for arriving right at start time. The staff saw families standing right in front of the school but would not let anyone in. There was never any advance notice that the doors would be closed which was very unprofessional of the administration. Hopefully I will never need another reason to go anywhere near this school.
