Posted December 21, 2012

this is the most horrific school my daughter has ever attended and we get transferred consistently. the teachers are all about 22 years old and came from other places and are getting their student loans paid off for coming here. they play on their phones and put makeup on and go get something to eat .. i am not kidding either. there is no supervision and bullying is out of control. the school looks like a dump from some inner city wasteland or a 3rd world country and guess what you don't have a better option...
