BPA was the first school to recognize that my kids were ready for more than cookie-cutter, rote learning. They helped get my kids extra online classes and tested to skip a grade and get placed in the nearby collegiate high school. Since my kids were getting straight As this was a sacrifice for the school. The grades and tests were helping the school rating and potential for salary bumps. The teachers and admins thought of the kids first and did everything they could to help them.
I am extremely pleased with BPA and a lot of the staff, teachers, and administration.

The teachers' family members are felons, its hard to teach integrity when they don't expect this from their family members.

The class sizes are larger than are legal in this state. The teachers are bullies. They curse around the children. The teachers don't allow that kids to use the bathrooms that are IN the rooms. I would not recommend. Additionally, PLEASE do simple searches on the internet to find out about the teachers. Its NOT positive!

The teachers sit at the picnic table at recess and allow a free-for-all.

They allow children to defecate or urinate on themselves, rather than respect a child with a disability letting them know they need to use the restroom.

Troubles are completely ignored by the staff, principal, and superintendent.

My children have been attending this school for a while and it is great. It is a small school and they get a lot more attention than you would get at a large school. The teachers go above and beyond to help students that need the assistance. It is a school that still believes in teaching kids manners and respect. They encourage family involvement in the classrooms and in their activities. I feel that this school has a safe and loving environment and am thankful that we have this kind of atmosphere in our community.

The children are barely supervised. The bullying is out of control in almost every class. The teachers talk about there students out of school and make fun of them. I would not subject my child to this type of environment another year. The teachers act worst than the children with there attitudes. Whoever said that this school is wonderful is out of there mind also!!!!!!!!! You can see how long ago all the good reviews were. The school has gone off the deep end!!

This school is amazing! My children get a great education there. I saw a huge improvement in my daughter who began kindergarten there last year. She started reading overnight. This year, she loves her teacher.
