Posted November 30, 2010

Both of my kids go to this school and they both have special needs. Dr. tatum and her staff are WONDERFUL and go out of their way to help each and every child. They want to push them to succeed, where the public shools have let them fall through the cracks. they host special events for the kids and really make them feel they can do well. my kids wont go anywhere else

My son attended this charter school for 5 months and that was the worst experience he has every had at a school. The director, Dr. Tatum and her staff are very unprofessional and treat the children as numbers for the head count and when they are no longer needed after reporting the amount of kids there, you child with special needs is no longer a priority to them. This charter school needs to be closely looked into if they haven't already. Many parents have taken their children out and the children who are still going there, I feel very sorry for them because the education and well being must not be on the top of their parents list. I do not recommend this charter school for any child.
