Engineering - Science University Magnet School
This school needs help from the board of education. It is a new school with lack of support and structure. It has many issues and is in dire need of help from the board of education. It is a great idea. I sent my son there as he loved math and science but I recently pulled him out as it was not a safe or structured environment. There is not enough staff for all the students they currently have. The school is in utter chaos. There is no structure as there is lack of discipline and structure in the classrooms. The school is currently run out of two different buildings in two different towns. In a few years after all the grades have been added and the entire school is in one building, maybe with enough staff this would be a school worth looking at but right now I would not recommend this school to anyone.
