Parent Rating Average
I don't have to repeat that this school is not only one of the lowest rating schools in the district but the parent involvement along with teacher coordination is horrible. My child is an exceptional student and the awards and report cards prove that, however, she is kept at standard level and not driven to full potentional because of resourses. Very Sad!
