As a parent volunteer, I'm frequently at the school. My experience with the principal, other leadership, counselors and teachers have been very good. The students are caring and I have a since of community within the school.

The teachers bully the parents. My son is in Pre k 4 and this teacher has brought out a side of me that makes me want to do something out of character!

The teachers do not even respect the parents. I was excited when he started but now I regret ever putting him there.

My son attends kindergarten at this school. His teachers Ms. Felix and Ms. Austin are phenomenal. My son is now reading above grade level and is excelling in math. I will recommend this school to every parent. The teachers are very dedicated and express a personal interest in their students

Students are happy and engaged. However principal leadership is very poor.Teachers are excellent, .Center City as school system is wonderful but the principal has to go with new leadership this school can be prosperous.
