I was told this was "a great school" and I actually believed it until, I noticed staff and teachers acting very judgmental towards me. Especially the front office staff, they are rude, misleading and liars. I'm not impressed with this school or it's teachers, some need more training before being allowed to teach! Very Disappointed!

This school has some of the rudest teachers and staff. But my son so far has been enjoying his first two years here at this school. Being the sweetest of teachers would be the kindergarten and first grade. They're rules and regulations are starting to get ridiculous and if you ever as the parent break the smallest rule you will get SCOLDED right then and there. All in all if my son is happy and learning well then that's all that matters.

I forwarn you of the rude... Close Quote

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

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.
