Phenomenal friendly teachers who care about students and enjoy what there’re doing. The teachers make learning very fun with games incorporated into the curriculum along with holiday incentives and a family like atmosphere. I built great relationships with teachers throughout my time there. Close Quote

If your child makes good grades you'll be kept completely in the dark.asked repeatedly for grades and 1 teacher sent me grades.parent portal is a joke. You can't email,text,call,or even mail that information? Ridiculous. Close Quote

lot of discrimination building not kept in shape fails to comply with IEPs Close Quote

My son comes home and tells me that technology class consists of a teacher that doesn't engage with the students and the students are expected to watch videos to carry out classwork. My son also comes home and tells me how despite being left handed, he's expected to play golf with a right handed club in gym class (same for field hockey as well). It seems like some of the teachers have simply "checked out". Close Quote
