Many of the teachers go above and beyond to reach the kids. The academic support teachers personalize instruction to each individual student and the performing arts teachers give the kids so many experiences they will remember forever.

in the 2011 and 12school year this school was very focused on education of students and created possitive learning environment for the basic subjucts with a good music and arts program. The school has since changed with a focus on the schools physical appearance and it's Chinese immersion program. My daughter was having trouble in Prealgebra and we learned her issue stemmed from not having an algebra book. Only half the class had an algebra book. I don't understand how the school can spend so much money on the building and not have enough books for the kids. This tells me the staff does not have the kids as there priority. Also the Vice principle is spanish speaking and has very little english skills; because of this, she favors the spanish speaking students. There have been more reports of student misconduct and crime in the neghiborhood. We have decided to go to a private school next year to protect our childs future.
