What people are saying

by a parent
Monday, July 16, 2012

I would love to say that this is a great school because I believe in public education, however, I have had nothing but terrible experiences in the two years my daughter attended. The teachers are burnt out and stop teaching after Spring Break if not sooner. My daughter watched movies a lot of the time or spend the day coloring. Not exactly what I expected for 1st grade. When I spoke with the teacher about it, she ignored it and continued with the same process.

The Principal is not any better. My daughter was being bullied because she was the minority. When I brought it to the attention of the principal, she made my daughter apologize to the girls bullying her. Completely unacceptable.

If I had friends moving into the area, I would recommend avoiding this school. I am actually moving to a new house to avoid it. Close Quote
