After 7yrs of teaching, I'm very happy with the administrative, parent, and Board support. Most parents are involved, open to receive calls on the academic growth/struggles and social behavior of their children.

Most parents have responded positively to that call, unfortunately some still look at public schools as a place to dump their children.
