What school district is West Liberty Elementary School part of?
I just had a question about the school. how is the school even academically, and teacher student wise? Do the teachers get abusive towards the kids? I mean i understand if kids get to dangerous there has to be some sort of restraint. I am just looking for a good school who will push my daughters to their full potential and not give them an easy way out or having teachers drag them across the floor putting bruises on them. that has been an issue at their one school.
