Open Quote Good for Spanish speaking crowd and no emphasis on academics at all. Teachers are Spanish and have a lot of favoritism as well. Principal doesn’t care about school rankings or academics. Not a good school if you want your kids to excel academically 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.
