(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Do not like this school. Consistently bad communication that gets worse each year. Clickish parents and children are treated better and get more awards and recognition if their parents are on the PTA or otherwise tied in closely to the school; by the way I am a very involved parent but not one in an influential position or with the right contacts. Bullying is bad at this school.
