School response and removal policy
Schools may respond to reviews and correct factual information. School responses are clearly marked so parents can understand both perspectives.
Reviews are not removed simply because they are negative. Reviews may be removed if they violate our review policy, contain unsafe personal information, appear fake, or make claims that cannot be responsibly published.
