They act capable, but are absolutely not. Very disappointing that they don't have passionate and kind staff/leadership to go along with the newer building :/

"I have lived in Midtown's Historic District for 15 years and my husband has lived in this neighborhood for over 22 years. The schools are the best in Springfield!
