What people are saying

by a parent
Thursday, February 6, 2020

This school is not very parent friendly, they do not contact parents about things that happen in the school, including children being physically attacked. Bullying is terrible. It barely functions as a school. Multiple reports of physical bullying and the bully's are still allowed to go into the school and continue to torment other children.The teachers do not let you know about grades or student progress. It's like pulling teeth to get anyone to return your phone call. Close Quote
