Both my kids have had awful experiences here from teachers and students being bullies, to lack of safety. This school has lost my child outside school grounds in kindergarten let students beat your child up with no punishment. And hire staff who like to bully your child who has an IEP with multiple mental disorders and teachers aren't educated on the disorders as well so don't know how to properly handle your child. My child came home crying because her teacher took her paper away while she was drawing balled it up and threw it in the trash without saying a word and when confronting the teacher and principle they saw nothing wrong with the teachers actions. Principle wants your child's butt in the seat so she can get paid but doesn't care what happens to your child. Awful school and awful district. 0 stars if I could I do not recommend this school to any child. Good luck.

I would not recommend this school to anyone. They do not hold their students responsible for anything and have very low standards and expectations for them. Working almost solely from the iPads has hindered their learning and writing skills. The no homework policy is absurd, and is only making them lazy and not preparing them for highschool and college where I feel they will be overwhelmed and have no time management skills. I feel my child has not progressed academically this year.
On another note Teachers, principle and staff are very nice.

They don’t require the kids to have homework. When we questioned this with teacher they said that it was to overwhelming for the parents and they only require them to read 30 min 4 days a week. This arises many concerns for me especially when it comes time for them to go to highschool or being prepared for college.
