(4 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - All the teachers we have encountered up to second grade have been awesome. I think the security of dismissing children to go home early or with other people after school could be tighter.

(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - this school needs to focus on safty.
children going to and from this school do not have any patrol on cold days.and the other days the patrole dont leave the front of the school,they make the kids cross the street infront of the school to walk down the street with trafic comming from behind them,when they could walk them down the side of the street with a sidewalk and crossing them safly at the end of the block!
