This school is dumbing itself down so that they can get a better rating. They are not ethnically diverse (mostly Hispanic and African American.) not that I am complaining however it was supposed to be more "even" after the rezoning. They do not provide adequate staffing especially for special needs children and the staff is condescending. The two of the three teachers I have to deal with are rude and can not answer your parenting questions. They do not give out homework (at least not that much if any) nor do they do spelling. I mean really how else will they learn! I do not believe they are truly focused on education but more on covering their own behinds to keep their jobs. If I had a choice my children WOULD NOT go here!!! Close Quote
