this was such a great school when I went it's a shame the new school doesn't have as big of a playground but it was still fun, I was in 6th grade last year and I had the best teachers that ever existed or Jennings and Mr jatuile there were two classes and my homeroom was Jennings and my class got 100% on math and science and 97% in language arts all because of these amazing teachers as of the other class they got 77% 68% and 92% still very good but we had better scores because there were no distractions in our learning such as special needs kids. Just something to keep in mind also do you rate charter schools like Reagan academy thanks.
