This is a very good school but some things about it could change.
Most teachers are nice and understanding, but they take some things to seriously. Close Quote

Poorly administered school. No recess...Little adherence to IEPs...Fear and intimidation are the rules the administers follow... 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.
