(NaN / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am not impressed with this school or staff. The glossy appearance does not accurately represent the school, in my opinion. If your child has issues with either behavior or learning, my recommendation is to find another school. Your concerns are dismissed along with any responsibility for any additional assistance from the teaching staff will be complained about at length I actually have a current teacher that will start every conversation with how stressed and overworked they are. I am not looking for excuses when it comes to my children and I am sure most parents feel the same way.
