I wouldn’t recommend this school, if you don’t want your children coming scratched and bruised up daily; don’t enroll. School teachers, school principal, school staff does nothing about this behavior! Had a bad experience at this school with my child coming to school everyday to defend themselves in...

My son is not learning anything at this school I believe the staff here does not care about the students they only care about a pay check . I kinda wish I could relocate my children to a cherry creek school! Atleast they care and are very observant about how the children learn.
