Okay at best and only if your child has no learning disabilities. It's almost impossible to have a 504 plan or IEP written unless your child is acting out behavior wise, not even with written expressed need from a DOCTOR of psychology! They will happily let your child fail every year then pass them at the end with D's. Bullying is another problem. They don't address it and even if the child tells an adult nothing is done. It basically comes down to the parent harassing the school just to get the staff to do anything about it. I can't say I like this school. It looks nice and relatively new and the staff seems good but ultimately they are inept and ineffective. I've had 3 children attend, 2 have been bullied, one has been allowed to struggle multiple years with them refusing to address it even after a diagnosis and 1 child who is in highschool now, has never complained other than letting it slip that he was bullied but he didn't care because it was a girl and he didn't find her threatening. My first experience there was enrolling my son...a pissed off mother was in the office stating that her son has called her from the bathrooms where he was hiding saying that people were threatening to beat him up and that she was going to call the police if they did not do something about it. I recall the office staff trying to shush and quiet her but it was not the first experience that a parent would want to witness or have when they are enrolling their child. I should have seen it as a warning but did not. I don't like my children being zoned for this school. Even the bus rides are awful and again nothing is done about these out of control violent kids

My step son goes to this school. So far no real problems. My 5 yr old will be starting kindergarten in september.Hopefully all goes well. The school is fairly new, it's clean, the staff seems nice enough. It's a large school, but the middle school is seperate. I don't care for the combined elm/middle school idea. Other than that, so far so good
