Many students at the two schools are on a college track. Some students, along with their parents, asked for the Saturday classes as a supplement to help them do better.

We need to keep the needs and wishes of the students and their parents in mind.

There's a misconception that our students won't go to college. We offer everything other schools offer including college preparatory courses.

Students need to take more college preparatory courses in high school, and schools need to begin forcing their students to have a more rigorous senior year, instead of having a 'blow-off' year.

Students today are going to college with a lot more valuable articles than their parents did it can add up. Parents need to make a decision about whether they want to take a chance with that.

This is really good news. I compliment our staff, the leadership teams in the schools, the students and parents – everyone who had a part in that.
