I am a student that goes here. Trust me when I say that a bit more than half is bad. When I was being bullied, the supervisors didn't notice anything. When I told my teacher, they just told the boy bullying me to stop. and then the bullying continued. The principle is kind-of rude and i fell like isn't fully into the student's benefits. Some of the teachers are really nice though. And now a story. My little brother we will call.. Ruth, was playing at our playground. Ruth then got a big wood chip stuck UNDER his nail. It was causing Ruth lots of pain. Do you want to know what they did? NOTHING! ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! When I heard about this, I was so mad I just- ERG! But anyway, They said they could do nothing. My Parents agree with me on this so this is not only my word. Also, everyone in my class agree too. So, We either need to to do something better, or redo everything.

The principal is a joke, she praises her special little teachers that are complete and utter clowns. This school should be shut down. Extremely rigged.

I can't even get my student's teacher to communicate with me. She's a complete child and unprofessional

This school is the bully they point the finger at parents rather than just working with the parent and student.

My daughter is a bright kid and she excels here. The teachers are thoughtful and dedicated. The school is small and old but clean and well organized.

My daughter has made steady progress academically over the years and has fallen in love with humanity, kindness, and conservation of our environment. I thank Dimensions for the part they played in helping her become a global and curious citizen.

Because they dont. This school is amazing for children who learn traditionally. Even for lower kids who will put in the hours. Its not so effective for children who need a lot of modification.

A good school with good teachers. The education of students is definitely superior to public schools, but includes many challenges with fitting in due to the smaller student body.
