I don't know how the student/teacher ratio is determined in this school but my children were there for two years in elementary and they both had 25-30 students for ONE teacher in kindergarten & 1st grade in 2011 & 2012. This is very deceptive in my opinion.
They definitely need more teachers or assistant teachers. They both had incredible but VERY overworked teachers. It isn't fair to the teachers or the studenrs to have so many students in a classroom. Close Quote
