Sabis International Charter School
I do not reccommend this school for children who cannot work fast pace. The cirriculum is very fast moving. Children take test 3 out of the 5 days. I am a current student who will be switching schools because my parents and I have found sabis to be an unhappy experience. We feel that the teachers are very unfair and students are not treated with respect. Thank you for reading
