The principal is horrible and never takes time to meet with parents. The current principal is vindictive and unresponsive to the needs of both parents and students.

This school is an amazing school. I have been here for 6 years and they always have something engaging for the student and staff to do.

My daughter is currently in Kindergarten gifted program at Carnegie and so far I have been pleased with her teacher as well as the administration. Her teacher is absolutely amazing and has gone above and beyond to ensure her class is effectively learning during these unprecedented times. Highlights:...

Pre-K through 4th grade were awesome! My children flourished and the teachers were awesome. But after the new principal came, teachers left and my children went on to 5-8th grade things changed drastically and there was no real support. No concern for what was happening or real resolutions.
