School Reviews麻豆果冻传媒>5 1/19/2024My kids have had some discipline issues and had to attend the Student Support Center, yet after they were there a few days they did not want to return to their home campus. The teachers and staff were incredibly friendly and gave my child individual attention. The staff made my child feel like they mattered and showed genuine concern for them.
