Terrible. My son has an IEP and has gotten worse grades as he progresses. The administration has changed SEVERAL times since even starting and so has his teacher. I wasn't even notified he had a different teacher/sub/ whoever any of the times they changed except for this last time. They said they didn't have my new contact information, but somehow they call me about my other child in the school. Any progress or communication with staff is extremely frustrating and makes zero progress. I feel like this school is basically useless as far as learning/progressing goes ESPECIALLY for children who need extra help. Getting my kids out BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY.
