Having heard your 'herppis' question asked of the 8th graders. Your principle and or teacher seem to be funneling their problems through the "children" in their test. Yes Children!,

I love this school. My granddaughter has learned so much from each of the teachers that she has had the last 5 years.

My daughter loved this school because she formed great friendships. A plus is that the parental involvement is great, and the after glow committee was amazing to the graduating classes! The teachers of the younger grades seem okay, however, the higher grade you go, the less compassionate the teachers become. I have had my child and her peers tell me often that they are rude, and don't like to explain teachings if they don't understand the first time. Also, we were not fond of the principal, he was very unfriendly and not approachable. I normally don't post negative things, but I am very glad my children are finished with this school.
