Very happy with independent. Our experience has been wonderful. They are working to improve special ed support but our experience with teachers in K-2nd have been great
1/14/2023
My son goes to this school for K. He is making a huge progress in every aspect. very experienced teachers and Principle is humble and helpful. The only down side is the visitor parking not available at both up and down parking areas. add more visitor parking please.

I've had two kids at this school. The principal is fantastic. The staff is pretty good. Almost all of the teachers are outstanding, with a couple of really bad ones being the exception. My kids are well supported and happy. Issues are resolved quickly and fairly. No complaints.
8/10/2018
Overall it was good. but not great. I hope there have been improvements made since my children have been there. The now common core Math have given disappointing test results compared to my older child. Some upper grade teachers have emphasized Writing and/or Science at the cost of Math instruction.
