Horrible school!! Do not send your children here. Front desk is the worst. They are unprofessional and incompetent. Communication between front desk staff and teachers seem to be non-existent. The school is also a disorganized mess. The staff is also petty and vindictive. The school is rated poorly...

This school is terrible. If you can’t get your child in a charter school you should move. Principal lies about anything bad going on and doesn’t listen to teachers. Lots of good teachers left the school because of the crazy principal. Trying to move and get my child out of here.
