This is the WORST school!!!!! The teachers NEVER update the parent connect, so I never know how my kid is doing, or what assignments my kid has missing etc until I get progress reports, and report cards. The staff that is outside every morning "directing" traffic are completely rude, and just disrespectful. I had no idea that this school was a low income school, if I would had known that I would had pulled my kid out earlier so she could get a PROPER education. This school only cares about their test rankings and not educating children.
