School Reviews

School district had an excellent music and arts program for the income they had. Compared to other schools in Kansas City, their resources for students were almost all free (community college classes, computer rental, sports, engineering, and music fees, instrument and art supply rental, etc). The school building itself was not very nice looking on the inside. Very kind faculty and staff, made good connections with individual students. There was very little judgement and bullying compared to a lot of other schools that I know of.

The academic progams don't add up to other schools such as the Shawnee Mission District. The bulding is very dirty inside, while the students are in there. They destroy things in their path. The female students most of them are pregnant and/or have a sexual transmitted diesase. Parents are shown no to be invloved by the way the children act. Their sports programs are the only thing the school has going for them.
