New leadership and front office staff (with exception of the current office manager) has caused a high turnover with veteran staff. The principal is dismissive and only sees things as black/white. Checks things off the list, but her actions show otherwise with making unprofessional comments and rolling her eyes to gaslight you. As a parent, I am appalled by her behavior. I have seen the Office Manager chewing out a student during the time I stopped in to check in with my child.
I am glad my children has transferred to another school in the district.

Special Educator is amazing and gets her students needs met. The staff at the front office is very friendly and outgoing and great at communicating. However my sons teacher lacks the understanding of classroom management. My son has struggled this year because he needs in the classroom are not being met, but they are when he is being pulled out for services.
As a parent of a child in Special Education and a teacher myself it hurts me to see him struggle because I know what he is capable of.
