We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Very poor supervision, children can scream for help and no one care's to listen, bullies are free to do as they will but the innocent children are not recommended to defend themselves against wrongs done to them. Bullies are defended and get away with everything they plan. I do not feel safe having my child in this school, most likely will remove my child.
