I love this school. Teachers there care about your kids.

Excelente en aprendizaje y en educación para niños con discapacidades

Teachers are very rude to parents and students. Teachers only care about kids of other teachers. Nepotism in this school, multiple teachers teaching their own kids which is wrong. Kids are moved into different classes so that kids of teachers can go in classes they want. If your child isn’t as fast...
