9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy daughter was here from 2020 until 2024. She is an IEP student diagnosed with autism. Her last IEP stated complete transparency and communication with parent's. This never happend. For over a year she was dealing with gender dysphoria and it was not brought to my attention even though her counselor and case manager were aware. When I found out the administration dismissed it saying it was a faze and alot of the kids dealt with it. That middle school is a pit stop and that she would feel better in highschool. They illegally kept a mentle issue from me. The physiological damage to my child from this school continues. Now I will have to homeschool my youngest child through these precious years. No way would I let another one of my children attend here.Parent Review1mo ago - First Flight High School
