School Reviews
| 1 This is the worst school. I have a newly (Oct) diagnosed High-Functioning Autistic child. We yet to have an IEP. He is allowed to put his hood over his head when he is over stimulating. He tried doing this, and the teacher made him take it off. Which then leads to him having a meltdown. The new principal is rude. Not at all trying to get with the teacher's for an IEP. Not a good school at all. My kids went here. It is so sad the decline of compassion. There sign outside says no child left behind. That's a lie. - Posted by Parent - Tammie Brackett |
