This has to be the worst school ever and very unprofessional and disgusting and disrespectful.I recommend you and your child to go to another school . They do not care about your kid and is extremely strict and it’s like a catholic school , they make assumptions and , yell at other kids ( say they don’t like the class, tell them to shut up etc.) they also touch the kids( grabbing behind their neck and grabbing them etc. and much more . Also the teachers are very disrespectful and do not keep in contact .My child’s saying : “i extremely regret going there meanwhile before going i was so happy to go but i wish i never went and most kids in this school feel that way too also that’s also the reasons they told their parents to exchange and transfer them.”

Teachers and staff bully students, threaten them and single students out as a form of retaliation if a child or parent speaks up about a problem, unprofessionalism or school inconsistent protocol.

All they care about is test scores and good their reputation appears to be to the public.

This is a school that does not care about the overall development of a student. There is no accountability for adults in this facility.

My daughter started attending this school in the second grade. She came from a public school and could not read. After attending the school she was reading within the first few months. She does have a IEP and they work very hard to keep her up to speed with the other children.
