Principal is great, caring and awesome but needs more reinforcement or hire new great teachers than giving additional assistance to retirerable some I though it's cost cutting. Needs more parent involvement and new faces, PTA just revolve among themselves.PTA needs more relevant enrichment for students. Hopefully t hey have a good program to improve.just wondering this is one of the old school here but still not been distinguished.

The teachers are the best! The only reason they rate a seven in my eyes is due to their class size. With the current issues in the budget the class's sizes have been pushed to 32. They also have combined classes (4th grade and 5th grade combined) to get the teachers to that 32 student size. I think it's unfair to the teachers, staff and most importantly the students.
