Turner Staff Released My Children To A Stranger!
They did not verify the person at all ...THEY FAILED TO ASK FOR ID,!!! THEY DID NOT CONTACT ME TO CONFIRM IF THIS STRANGER WAS OKAY TO PICK UP MY CHILDREN !!!
This person literally told the school my kids name && the staff went to get my children
Gave the stranger my kids && watched them drive away..
MY CHILDREN PAID THE ULTIMATE PRICEEEE !!!!!! because this school are ready to push our children out the door everyday ! SOO BAD they didn't feel like looking at my kids paperwork to check and see who name is listed.... NO CALL ..NO CARE AT ALL

The staff is very welcoming! The education there is good and the students are very responsive to the staff and there is a deep sense of care outside of the education towards them. The school has passion more than anything for any of the students that come through the doors. Passion for their success, and passion for their future too.

The PK program is excellent for students. The teachers are responsive and caring. They also share how students are doing with you.

Turner has a lot of potential, but it will take the cooperation of the parents to make it better. I have to work a little bit harder with my son to make sure he stays ahead, since the work at the school is average. I want to continue to support my neighborhood school. Hoping to get community members and parents actively involved.
