This school is totally lacking knowledge and support for kids with special needs. Teachers are definitely not prepared to nor they want to learn how to deal with kids that require special accommodation or special therapies. Nor they let the professionals help. Not recommended.

This is the worst school possible. All work is done online. I don't think my child has handwritten anything since being at this school. Kids with IEPs or 504 plans do not get the accommodations they deserve even though the school gets funding for these accommodations. The principal does absolutely nothing when you bring a concern to the table. I called every day for a week until I got a call back. I've gotten to the point where I have called the school district and plan to take it to the top because it's ridiculous at this point. Teachers don't care. They don't email back, they don't call back. And when they do its with such attitude. My son hates going to school. He states he gets no help, when they get frustrated with him, they send him to another class. This is not a way to treat a child. Save yourself the headache and avoid this school at all costs. Theres a reason they aren't even at half capacity.

This school is genuinely so harmful towards students with mental health issues as they do not care for mental health. Are you depressed? Convince your parent not to come because you miss two days for said depression they will NOT care. They claim to do so and even have clubs but you try to talk with someone and all they do is give a scripted line and call your parents. My friend missed a few days because she was at the HOSPITAL for her mental health and they did not care and expelled her. It’s truly disgraceful how they don’t care for their students and all about attendance, uniform, and trying to keep a good reputation knowing full well majority of their students are struggling . Although that lies on the students behalf as well, they do not try to be involved. Do not get me started on teachers as well. Majority are dismissive, lazy, and harsh. The amount of teachers who think playing only videos and not teaching or reading the assignment without explaining (literally just reading questions and lazily repeating it in a way to seem like it’s different) is teaching. Only few teachers here actually care and that’s a very small minority. Don’t be late too you’re late by a SECOND and they act like you skipped class. They have a very serious strict attendance requirement and some teachers force you to get a late pass if you’re a little late. I understand some cases is on us but some people don’t have proper transportation like me! And the kids- don’t even get me started. You wanna avoid the genuine rude kids and disrespectful ones that think being rude to the teachers is funny? Take hard classes. Only way to avoid them is going into AP classes and some still manage to sneak in. It’s so tiring being a student here and it’s ruined my mental health so badly that I’m struggling in my classes because I don’t have the energy or will to do my work because these teachers are so useless. Just to make this clear I’m not failing any classes. To make sure this review is not out of anger though I’m sure you can sense some of it. Anyway don’t come to this school. Not worth it
