Great video ! We are looking into a charter school, I was wondering does your charter school allow you to buy books on your own that are from religious companies? For example abeka curriculum? I heard some charters don’t allow that, thank you

Thank you so much for this Video. My son is in 3rd grade still learning to type, so my question is during the writing portion of the test does he write on paper then type? And do they get plenty of time to type cuz he’s really slow.

Hi! Im a student, I don’t think my did any good when it comes to teaching math, most of the students in math class failed the quizzes the teacher gave us for math, mostly the math class in our school did bad. Now that we’re doing the CAASPP test for math and I think I suffered pretty terribly. What can I do?
