  • I am pretty happy with the school itself. The main problem was my sons teacher ms. wall. Who was completely insane, and was the worst kindergarden teach. Thanks to her my sons first year in school was miserable. I have talked to many other parents and they all said the same... She's going to sealston this year so I would make sure your kid isn't in her class.
