- Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on August 11, 2010

(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - The school has good teachers, but lacks the professional environment healthy for children. This is a family owned school. Owner is Administrator, college daughter is office manager, Owner is Janitor, Sister is teacher, Sister is Salon Owner, Brother is Karate instructor and Son is Handyman who hangs out at school whenever he wants to. No healthy lunches are served. Alot of white bread and skimpy servings. Children do not receive their own milk carton but are served from gallon jugs into cups. No adequate play area, which has one swing set and ants. No library for children. No computer access on a regular basis. No formal structure for communication. You may drop you child off and receive door service, but what lurks behind those school doors? Safety is not an issue. The children are well protected. I expected more from the school. It is definately not worth the money spent.
