But, with this program I am challenged which is good for me.I do have to say I have been absent a good amount of days this year.

I go to PAMS and I am in the eight grade. I love this school so much! Many teachers are great and love to teach and are supportive. Core teams are like families.

My daughter (who is not as motivated as my son) has also had commendable teacher involvement.
