My son was one of the charter students in the Broach School. I have nothing bad to say about this school, in fact, i have nothing but praise for the staff of the school. I would recommend that if your student is eligible, that you get them signed up for the next school year.. you will be glad you did.. By the way, my son graduated from broach this past year(2012)....
