Some teachers and staffs are very strange. Even one star is overrated.

Very strange school. The principal assistant handles everything but not in a good way. She punished students standing in an office extremely long time. My friend's kid had that situation several times and finally they left the school.

This is a fabulous school with caring staff and teachers! Extremely active PTA that works hard to fill budget gaps caused by elected officials.
