The teachers dont show their concerns or even wanting to help parents in the well being of their children. Instead they take complaints in one ear and out through the other. I dont expects things to change because with people like them its almost an impossible thing but I just want to let out my frustration.

As a former employee I can give an informed opinion about this school. The principal/ admin was not an effective, supportive, approachable and efficient leader. She would intimidate teachers, retaliate when anyone voiced concerns, ignore requests and the list goes on. Now the superintendent (her friend) has been forced to resign so hopefully things will change for this school.

They recently lost an amazing principal and they have successfully recruited a great principal with a solid background.

All class rooms have aids that help too identify failing students, I dot support allocating resources on failing students and not supporting successful students but oh well.

My kids attended this school a few years ago . I liked the school up untill i found out my child wasn't receiving the right help ! I do not recommend this school especially to parents with special need children Classes are getting crowded every year .This year they had too many 5th graders that my neace couldn't start school till 2 days later . My sister asked to speak to the principle and he just walked away from her . Im glad I pulled my kids out of this school district .
