  • I really, like this school. They maintain, order rewards to good students like a movie at the end of the months to student with les than four checks. The lockers may be small but other than that this school is a good one.
  • Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on July 19, 2008
  • Rating: 1 (1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • The (...) and teachers at this school are extraordinarily disrespectful of parental wishes and irresponsible when it comes to contact with ALL parents. On numerous occasions our child's situation was explained to the Principal and teachers, we were reassured that we would be sent report cards, progress reports etc, and never received more than an introductory email from ONE teacher. This school not only failed our child and their needs but they failed us.
