What people are saying

by a parent
Sunday, May 10, 2015

This school is operated on a path of least resistance. The staff has no desire to help students excel, only to maintain. The staff can be snotty and feel as they are the ones evaluating parents as apposed to being accountable to them. they offer zero help to the point of not disclosing curriculum materials under the guise of confidentiality. This school is sad. Some teachers may be outstanding but many have the personality of a dish rag. Also, "as you know" the food is fit for alley cats....I wouldn't feed it to people that were starving. Close Quote
