I had one incident to happen to Jacob on the school bus and it was handled expediently and up to my expectations, No gang issues, no fights. Overall the school is a good school , I have had my experience with some good teachers and some not so good teachers

They offer after school programs but it cost. I would like to see more culture clubs, instrument offers, sports at an early age. More trips to the museum for the children. This school has no culture.

Both of my sons attended this school, and our entire family truly loved this place. The director is exceptional, always engaged and super nice to kids and parents. It is also a very safe school which in these days is very important.
