(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This school is not at all what I had expected. My child has been going here for two years. The first year my child had an excellent teacher. This year was the worst. The teacher is miserable, and has no manners what so ever. Teachers tend to play favoritism and will only encourage their favorites. They also favor certain parents. If you're not a favorite parent, don't expect to to be able to attend any ceremonies for your child and get a decent seat. Only the favorites sit up front. I have noticed patterns each year. Not only is this unprofessional, I shouldn't have to stand for it being that I pay FULL tuition and use their after-schol program. Oh yes, and working mothers are not respected either in that atmosphere. Parents act like 15 year olds and are nothing but adulturers. Looks more like a social event when you pick your child up at regular dismissal time. Parents gossip. I have to say the principal is excellent, but some of the staff could use some anger management.
