The teachers are so bad, im witnessing how they treat students via online schools. They have no respect whatsoever for the parents or the students. These teachers (especially the first grader teachers) think they are all that but honestly a kid won't need a bully if they have teachers like the teachers in this school

This school is AWESOME. The principal Ms. Mitchell communicates with parents and has an energetic attitude. The assistant principal is cool and she is always helping out, she does not look so friendly but she is when you talk to her. Ms. Thacker is very expressive and loud and she gets the job done....
