My daughter loves the teachers and the whole school environment. The staff is really trying their best to stay engaged with families. I approve this school.

Extremely bad experience from bullying to fights on regular bases. Didn’t seem as organized at all kids all over the place. Some staff members showed lack of experience and professionalism like the six grade administrator interim.
