We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Low proficiency scores for reading and math though the teacher student ratiio is 1 to 16. Majority of students are Latino and they constantly bully Non Latino students. Borders on violence that administrstors REFUSE to address. Many students have non English speaking parents and they are held back because of their parents are unable to help and encourage proficiency.Avoid.Poor leadership .
