My son went here in 2010 . He has ADHD and the teachers used it as excuses to keep him from activities . The music teacher was really rude to him also . The female principle was great though , I don't remember her name sorry . I do not recommended this school

Beyond the technology used to keep the school safe, there is very little good at the school. The right hand never knows what the left is doing. The principal has the habit of passing all blame on someone else on staff and the parents. There is no open communication on any part of the chain of command. They decided to limit children having cupcakes or any drinks for their birth because the principal lost a hundred pounds and felt the children should change their diet as well.
