    Induvidual teachers can be fantastic- but the overall feeling is average. They had a hard time making accomodations for disabilities-but they tried to, there was effort.

    The teachers,staff, and students are all very welcoming and nice. The teachers will definitely help you if you need it. Most teachers are pretty flexible if you need to be gone.
    Staff were not well educated and their system is losing money and kids are slipping through the cracks.
