This school is a great school it teaches all people and is so helpful for people new to language art, math, reading, geography, science, and all other subjects. I think it's the best school.

Very inconsistent and unorganized method of giving and collecting assignments.

Systematically unorganized, underqualified, unprofessional seem to be overworked needs additional education in Child Development

Disagree, inconsistent with use of behavioral system, which is DOJO points that involves a computer application called ClassDOJO. Educators learn to appropriately discipline with appropriate communication and consistency, which they seem to lack. Must lead by example.

The administrators, teachers and support staff always put the students education first. They keep the parents/guardians inform of the students learning progress and well-being. I like that my child teacher always communicates with the parents.
