Let me give you all a RECENT review for 2023. This school is full of bad kids, bullying, poor leadership, horrible lack on consequences and then some. Falsify and lie on incident reports and fails parents. My 1st grade child has been slapped, punched in her privates, pushed to the ground, and more ! Incidents happening more than once with two kids in particular. I've met other parents with "like" problems.

My child is making significant academic progress since starting at Kindezi. The teachers are responsive, and it’s easy to schedule an IEP meeting.
