  • Whenever someone throws in behind on bill while complaining about something I have to wonder if the complaints aren't generated by the parent being behind on a bill.
    I pulled my daugher out of public school and enrolled her in PCS. She was becoming a problem child in the public schools. For whatever reason, she is doing great at PCS. Public shcools wanted her tested for ADD/ADHD, we have had no problems at PCS. I highly reccomend the school. There are a few teachers teaching subjects they might not be as qualified for as they should, but it's the same in the public schools as well.
