I have a niece that goes to this school and she has a tumor on her pituitary glad and has to have constant monitoring for growth. Her endocrnogist is in ATL and she must regularly miss school. She also has an immune deficiency which causes her to regularly miss school. She could be a Straight A student if the principal and teachers would work with the parent and provide make up labs and homework. My sister has been to the school on a regular basis (she is disabled also) and they really just don’t seem that interested in helping this child succeed. They tell her to bring my niece in early then the teacher shows up late and my niece has been sent to the gym to wait. How proactive is this school really?
Nope I dont live in Oconee but I do have 4 neices 4 nephews who go to these schools
