Most of the teachers and staff are great! But there are some teachers that need to stop rewarding kids for things that doesn't need to be rewarded for. Kids don't need to be rewarded with candy or snacks for every little thing. I seen a teacher show favoritism in a couple students and not the others. And all the teachers and staff as their job need to treat all the kids the same. I am thinking about taking my kids to Lawrenceburg if things don't change.

"It’s an ok neighborhood to live in as long as it’s away from conwell street. That side of town has allot of drug dealers and users so I recommend the outskirts of town or over by the river. "
