I agree with this reviewer. The principal is quite arrogant and I was uncomfortable approaching him. Bummer as the former principal was so good. Close Quote

I have had 3 kidos go through this school and up until this year it’s been fantastic. Unfortunately, they have a principal that comes across as arrogant and can do no wrong. Definitely not someone I would want to deal with on a daily basis. You can feel the tension When walking in. And if a team has any issues to be addressed - instead of fixing the problem, it’s covered up by splitting up the team and not working as a team at all (trust me, kids are smart and they DO notice). So sad! The last principal that opened this school worked so hard and made everyone feel welcomed and important- things would have never been like they have become. I’m hoping he finally notices that all the teachers, staff, students and even visitors all are people too, with feelings and deserves to work and learn in a healthy environment. Close Quote
