I loved the coaches, they were amazing and so kind, Mrs.Phillips Mrs.Garcia and Mr.Higdon were also amazing people and the kids really do get the whole hands on experience. I would like better office staff though,.

If you've got a child with disabilities it can be handled better. Most of the children won't let the parents know.

Some looks away when other children bully others and they don't say a word.

The old literacy coach ( lead teacher) got to decide if a child has a learning disability or not. Based off of "Bill Gates," being autistic.

Please refer to my above mentioned question. Children are being pushed ahead, just to be out of ones hair.

Some teachers know, but they won't say a word unless the kid being bullied walks up. Which in most cases the child won't because their too scared.

Dissatisfied. When you see first hand your child being left behind and struggling to learn, it breaks your heart.

At no time that I'VE ever seen has any staff member disrespect a student. My granddaughter goes there and I wouldn't have her go anywhere else...

I have had to visit this school on several occasions and every time I was there someone was there to help. My granddaughter has gone there for4 years. I want to thank the teachers and the office for all you do...Above and Beyond the call of duty...thank you...

The teachers turn the other cheek when bullying occurs based on weight or race. They even laugh along with students when They make very hurtful "yo mamma" jokes

We have had a horrible experience with this school from day one. The staff is rude and very un-welcoming. The Secretary acted as if it was a nucense to enroll our children and gave excuse after excuse as to why none of our paperwork could be accepted the first time around and when we returned (after visiting the school district office to ensure we had the proper paperwork) She ignored us for 20 minutes in order to look at another staff members pictures from her vacation. My daughters teacher refused to let her use the bathroom causing her to almost urinate on herself and sent her home with a disciplinary action note because She ran out of class when she could no longer hold it. (She was in THIRD grade). When brought to the assistant principles attention (because the principal was out for meetings for the third day in a row) I was told that not only did my daughter need discipline but I did as well. When I was finally able to speak with the principle she told me she had not heard of the incident and didn't even know who any of my kids were, and that there were to many students in the school for her to know any kids by name or appearance. When my son went to the office to speak with someone because he found himself the object of racial jokes from other students (which the teacher told him to learn how to take a joke) he was turned away twice. These are just a few of the problems we had at this school. The list could go on forever. I suggest not moving into this school district because there is no school of choice. This school treats their students like a pay check and care nothing about their learning.
