This school represent the old racist practices of America and I would not recommend this school to non-white students. Their teaching practices do not align with the state standards and though the classrooms are small, the teachers are not caring and will isolate a child who does not fit their idea of a white student. The school creates hostile learning experiences while not encouraging students to reach their fullest potential but rather to fit into a mold that is cultural. Accepting cultural differences is not a practice of this school. I would not recommend this school to your child unless you are desiring to throw your child to the wolves because devouring is a common practice of this school. My experience there has been extremely negative and I am desiring to make people aware of their practices because they are a large organization who have historically caused grief for many minorities.
