Great School, Excellent teacher and very nice staff.. always helpful.

As a parent to a student who is currently attending this school in second grade; I would not recommend this school to parents. They say they have a strict anti-bullying policy; however this "policy" does not apply to blacks and females. If you have a boy, it is even worse as they do not care or understand boys and their development. The sponsor for anti-bully policy is an organization called "ZONTA", they are a feminist organization that only cater to the well-being of women and girls; not boys. This is a very dangerous and negative political agenda that I do not want pushed onto my son who is a free thinker and all boy. They expect your child to get with the collective program and they do not like children and parents who think for themselves and show integrity and leadership. If you are a parent who is actively involved in your child's life and well-being, I implore you not to enroll them into this school. They are unsafe, biased, sexist, and the teachers are not good at all. Also, teachers secretly yell at the children and treat them in a disrespectful manner and do not know how to treat incidents that occur at the schools such as fighting. They are simply not a good school, I give them a 1/10 for LACK of integrity, intellect, intelligence, and compassion.
