This is the worst school I have ever dealt with. Communication between teachers and administration is virtually nonexistent, leaving parents constantly chasing information that should be proactively shared.The newly formed CSS program is extremely disappointing. It feels poorly planned, incomplete, and lacking meaningful structure. Instead of providing appropriate academic and behavioral support, it functions more like a glorified day care. Expectations are low, follow-through is inconsistent, and there is little evidence of intentional instruction or progress monitoring.The school environment itself is equally troubling. The building is old, depressing, and visibly neglected. Cleanliness is a serious concern—there are bugs, both dead and alive, throughout the building. The overall atmosphere feels outdated and uncared for, which does nothing to support learning, emotional regulation, or student well-being.Additionally, the program site coach stated that she had no experience working with autistic children, yet is responsible for managing the CSS program. Emails routinely go unanswered, communication is minimal, and basic tasks that could easily be handled electronically are instead delayed or handled inefficiently. She is not approachable and seems unavailable, often appearing preoccupied with responsibilities outside of this school.Overall, this school feels stuck in the stone age—outdated practices, poor communication, and minimal accountability. Families of children who require structured, specialized support deserve far better than what is being offered here.I would not recommend this school, especially for students who need consistent, well-designed support programs.

Showed obvious signs of neglect while attending this school when I was younger. School never ever even asked about home life, took me to the councilor or reported it. Had a teacher in 2nd grade that was extremely rude to kids, and after that year wouldn’t even look at me. Also in 2nd grade, a boy in my class would hit on himself when stressed/ got things wrong, sometimes extremely hard and teachers would say “don’t do that” before going back to whatever they were doing. Once i ended up dislocating my knee during a P.E. Activity. Got to sit in a chair for about 5-10 minutes before being forced back into P.E., despite still being in pain. My guardian didn’t even get a text about the inquiry… Hopefully this school has changed since then, but for now I still wouldn’t put my trust in it.

This is a wonderful competitive high school
