I read these reviews and do not agree. I am very familiar with this school. The students are very intelligent. The teachers are very involved with the students and keep them on track. Your review must be in numbers. The 7:1 ratio is exactly what I wanted for my child. Either your statistics are based on numbers of students taking the state exams. If so, this is a very bad way to gauge student learning. It makes the teachers and students look bad. I think you should come down and see this little school. It will change your mind. We may not have sports (yet) but the administration and faculty are doing a great job. This article is disturbing. Don't believe the media is right. Come see it yourself, then make a judgement .
