My child was bullied nom stop, sexually harassed on more than one occasion and the principal did absolutely NOTHING. Neither did the district.

3.0 parent

3/19/2015

My kids have had both great teachers and bad ones that did not take into account individuality. Preschool head is fabulous and would highly recommend preschool. Overcrowded, too many students. Very active and hard working leaders in PTA. Mixed feelings, if you have a choice go somewhere else.
