School Reviews
| 1 Terrible school! It's always chaotic! There are a handful of great teachers but other than that it's horrible! The food is terrible; they let the kids run wild in the after-school program! Teachers DO NOT watch the older (3-5th grade) kids on the so-called playground that is literally a field! I do not know how this place is still allowed to operate! Needs a new principle and 2 new vice principals put into place! Ridiculous! The have wayyyyy too many students in 1 classroom! There is NOT enough staff to watch these kids! Principal/vice principals get mad and AVOID YOU when you have an issue you bring to their attention! Wish I could rate it a 0. - Posted by Parent - Concerned Parent |
