So grateful my children were assigned to preschool here. It has been a true breath of fresh air and makes me wish I could go back to elementary school again. Everything is organized and the Facebook page is up to date. The school utilizes current apps like Class Dojo and has engagement right away. Communication is prompt and fair and the staff really cares about their work allowing the children to learn, play and grow together. I look forward to continuing to be impressed by this gem of a school.

Some teachers are amazing while others do not teach children. HUGE amount of substitute teachers used for long term teaching.

Children here are disrespected and treated very poorly. Lunch room staff can be extremely rude to the little ones (1st-pre-k).

Principal is disconnected from students. She is not an involved principal.

Children are grouped into classes based on ability. My personal opinion is this school segregates their students based on ability, behavior, IEP, and "normal." There classes are not equal.

Teachers will turn a blind eye to fighting. Physical violence is high in this school and little is done to improve other students safety.

Its about half and half as to effectiveness. Communication is the biggest problem with teachers in this school.

Principle Coglin is failing students at this school. She fails to effectively prepare staff or students for success. She allows many practices that are potently harmful to student safety and does not maintain discipline on campus. Further she fails to communicate to parents and students about academic and extracurricular learning opportunities within the district. Further she fosters an environment where the African American majority is favored to the determent of the Hispanic and white population of the school .

There is room for improvement across the board

Leadership is non-existent at this school. This school has HORRIBLE issues with bullying. If you have a child with learning disabilities, etc. transfer them to another school. The principal is difficult to get in touch with. I like my kids' teachers. However, leadership within this school should be wiped out and replaced. This school is located in a low socio-economic area, and needs better support than the current leaders can provide.

I have 2 children attending here and they love it. Their teachers are very hands on and communication with them is easy and constant. I like that there are two separate building for the younger and older children. The school is clean and the classrooms seem o be very organized.

The grounds keeping staff where sexually harassing women when they dropped off children at school. When the office was informed they stated that people shouldn't be on the grounds during school operating hours.
