Open Quote 15:1 teacher to student ratio? No way. The school is overcrowded. Many 2nd (and higher) grades have 36-38 students per teacher. Teachers cannot effectively teach in this environment. Close Quote

Open Quote This school is horrible!
I cannot believe the kindergarten class has LUNCH at cafeteria at 10AM every MORNING. And the 5-year-old only has 15 MINUTES to complete the lunch. Imagine they have to line up to get the lunch box which may take 5 minutes, and 10 minutes for lunch???? My son told me he does not have enough time to finish his lunch everyday.

The most horrible thing is his classmate beat him 3 days ago in the playground and he was sent to the medical office. There is NO note from the school!!! Do not know what happened. But if a student is injured to bleeding and sent to the school medical office, does the parent at least deserve a note??? Close Quote
