I'm surprised no reviews have come in the last 11 yrs. But as a 4 year ongoing parent. I want to say its just as good as it can be. My kid has had great teachers and also very mediocre ones. The school is just like any other... all they care its about attendance (yes we know u get paid by the kid by day) but.... sigh. Before / After-school programs are very mediocre as well... school feels safe, on this days where anyday anything can happen nothing feels safe no matter what they do or not. But at least u don't see kids hanging around vandalizing or just being lame.... never the less its a k-6 ...

My daughter has been attending this school for a year and will not be returning. The whole staff is very rude to the students and run the school very unsuccessfully. Our teacher is rarly there and sometimes brings her own child to class. My daughter attends transitional kindergarden. They are the youngest class and are often the last obes left on the plaground after the bell rings. There is absolutly no security on campus. Anyone can walk through the open front or through the unlicked back gate. The young kids are sent to and from the office with no adult and it is not a great neighborhood. This school caters to bon-enlsh speaking families and if you arent one if them your child comes last in class. Several tines the children have been aloud to play outside in the pouring rain. They usually have only one yard duty during lunch hour. When I have attended lunch hour I witness about 60-70 students per one adult. The nurse is not qualifyed to deal with children or practice medicine in general. I have personally walked several students to the nurse and she greets them with annoyance befire she even know their name.

Excellent school, .love the teachers and the principal. The principal is always around and available to talk to parents. She relly knows the students.

I m pretty happy with this school. My son attends it and the teachers are pretty good at keeping them on their toes every day. The only thing I do wish they worked on a little better is the lunch time and recess. They need more yard duties and the yard duties she be more involved with the kids as well as helpful. There was an incident were a kindergartner came up to a yard duty that was talking to me at the time and asked if she could help him and tie his shoes, the yard duty refused and I ended up doing it myself. She looked at me and said, Well I do this every day and my hands get super cold. Hello! That s what you get paid to do!
