What people are saying

Monday, August 8, 2016

The classroom environment isn't what I imagined or remember as a child. The complaints from other parents are constant about how the kids are being taught, disciplined, and treated. It's quite disturbing to worry about your child when they are in school. We want what's best and for schools to offer a safe and nurturing environment. My opinion is that there is too high of a turnover and not enough dedication to help students succeed. Close Quote

If you have an active child stay away. Their motto is to lock kids who act out in a padded room and restrain them to get there. The children are K-2nd grade. Imagine learning about this after a month of trying to figure out why your kid is all of a sudden angry, anxious, scared and uncooperative. Close Quote
