(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I loved this school at first. I soon came to understand that even though my daughter's teacher was amazing the quality at this school is lacking. It failed to deliver any sort of advanced academic challenge, it failed to provide my daughter with a safe enviroment. For 6000 dollars a year plus all the free time they could take I found it awful. The admistration isn't intrested in the children who are there that are a danger to other's as long as their parents keep paying they keep right on letting these kids in to torture other students. The feild trips were always cancelled (unless it was the nutcracker then EVERYONE wanted to go) My daughter who was reading when she entered soon lost intrest because there was nothing to keep her going and no one payed any attention to that. I think it's a waste of money and I would never send a child there, you're much better off homeschooling.
