Great school with good teachers. They care about my child. They want kids to be successful. The Principal keeps parents informed with pre recorded calls. Test scores have been good and I am pleased with my child's progress. The school has club days once a month.

If you're not the "it" student you won't make it. They will find a reason to get rid of your child. The top of it needs to come down if anything us going to change at that school. If not some kids will be ostracized while others will go on..not necessarily the right ones. But the "it" children are safe .
