You are correct about the school in Long Beach, California. My grandchildren went there year before last. It has since closed. It was a terrible experience, little or no homework, and what can you learn/be taught in a 3 hour school day? It was from K through 12th grade. So many days off you can't believe...when the Seniors had field trips, etc. the rest of the school closed because there were only 7 "teachers'. We believe that only 1 was fully accredited...I could go on and on. One of the favorite "teachers" quit and he emailed and/or phoned the students to reveal the inner politics and to undermine the authority of the Principal, even going so far as calling her "a bitch" in front of the students during a class. The students did not act like Witnesses, the clothing was inappropriate, they bullied people, made fun of people, and there was a lot of gossip and name-calling. Although the open house looked impressive, the projects were all assigned and due one week before the open house. This year-long experience contributed to one of the reasons why they are no longer going to meetings.
The level of education was grossly sub-standard. The reason given for closing the school was due to financial reasons and the decline in enrollment. I wonder why?!?
Where are these kids now? My grandchildren are in public school doing well. The others, maybe being homeschooled?
