I had an incredible experience while teaching under the leadership of Principal Mair for seven years. Those years spent with her and my associates were truly amazing. When she was replaced by our new principal everything changed for the worse. I only hope the very best to all of the remaining staff.

Leadership in this school (2017/2018) is lacking. There are teachers in this school who yell at students in ways that do not seem appropriate.

I'm so pleased with the achievements of my son. Thanks to the teachers and guidance he receives at school, his academic level is of an advance grade. WELL DONE CLEVELAND!!!
