I could not disagree more with the previous entry. The administrators could not provide more support to the students - given the resources that they are provided. Many of the children who attend affluent schools such as Coeur d Alene are often the only children of parents who both work at full time

They come to school where they are not the focus of all the staff and act out to get the attention that they so much desire and at intermittent times receive. This behavior is manifest by very inappropriate attempts to receive recognition with the result that they receive admonishment for not behaving inappropriately.

This school does not deserve its good reputation!!!! What a big disappointment! First it is not a safe environment; always a gate open. The school leadership is obsessed with fundraising, but kids are of little concern, if at all. I found them indifferent, uncaring. The focus is on standardized testing
