I attended this school a few years ago, and I have to say I agree with the concerned parent. I do feel as if the school is out to get money from young adults. They have a high teacher turnover rate and some of the teachers didnt even act like teachers. There were a couple of teachers that worked there when I attened that was just wonderful, and I hope for their sake they have left and found better jobs. As for the school itself, I wouldn't recommand it to another student.
