(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I find it hard to believe that the school district doesn't do background checks on employees.

(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This has little to do with the school academic rating, but some one should clean up the property behind the school on Coats ave. It is disgusting! There is so much litter and plain old garbage, I sometimes feel a bit apprehensive walking there for my morning walk.
