Open Quote 4yrs at the school has slowly uncovered the reality. Underqualified teachers with high taecher/student ratio. They do not take extra time with children that may need it. Instead they ask you to take your child to outside tutoribg after school hours. Principal is fake, dishonest, money hungry, and gossips. In my case i have always considered this school the lesser of 2 evils. Public school in my area is deplorable. However i am no longer thinking that is the case. 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.
