After reviewing the current ranking information and data, it's hard to believe that on paper this school looks like a horrible school. My son has attended this school for the past 5 years. This is a brand new school, it was opened the first year my son attended. There are obviously many things that the school needs to improve on, but overall it has been a great school for just opening up. His teachers have been very nice and supportive. I am a teacher as well, and I don't believe that state testing scores should determine schools'' improvement. Many factors take part in students'' poor test-taking. I myself am very bad a test-taking. I don't think those tests should determine if a school is bad or good.
