This school has little education and they are too focused on religion and not other things like math and literature. It is good for some people but not for me and my three other siblings. Two years ago we left and we are happy to be out of there. We are getting a much better education now.

After all we pay tuition and have jobs we are responsible for. For single parents it is difficult and not taken into consideration.

I think the principal of this school has no business being a principal. Her attitude is high and mighty and I think she needs to be brought down to size. As far as the education my children, my children are learning a lot and are very advanced for their ages and feel the curriculum is wonderful.
