Open Quote Very poor emphasis on special education for the special needs kids. There police were called multiple times for "a b u s e" which is not an exaggeration(go to the police station and see for yourself) The kids are terrified of the special needs teachers. Special needs teachers always "lose" the kids during field trips too, BEWARE! Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio
Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
