Open Quote If your child is completely average in every way, and you want them to remain average for the duration of their childhood (average also includes acting and dressing, and speaking like typical video game playing, undisciplined children who are not being taught to act or dress differently at school) this school will probably be fine for you. If you want a focus on real academic achievment, fulfilling true potential, and striving for excellence send them to private school. If there is any problem at all with your child (real or falsely perceived) you will be singled out and called in for the most minor personality quirk. They won't take responsibility for any shortcomings, they blame everything on large class sizes (which are not very large) and make you feel like something is wrong with you or your child- when in reality they just can't or won't deal with anything using common sense. They make teaching way harder than it needs to be by overanalyzing and jumping the gun to make assumptions instead of having confidence in the childrens' ability to learn and master new skills (which then instills that confidence in the child) So if you want that sort of education for your child, and are concerned with state test scores only, this school will be fine for you. My child deserves better and I will make sure he gets it. Close Quote
