  • Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on June 22, 2010
  • Rating: 2 (2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • The school is not very helpful in providing details about changes in time. For example one day I arrive after school and they inform me I can no longer get off to pick up my child after school. They changed the way to pick up your kids after school and they inform no one, not even the teachers knew. I also did not like that they are so disorganized in the mornings, all the kids are waiting outside their class rooms and its so chaotic with kids screaming and yelling and running around. They need more structure. What I did like about the school was the teacher my child had in kinder, she was very patient with her.
