- Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on April 08, 2009
- Rating:
(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am not that happy that we are zoned here. The class size is not consistent. One year my child had 17 children in their class and the next there were 26. As predicted the public school teachers can not keep up with all the children and they do not stay on top of my child to make sure that she is learning everything needed to be prepared for tests. I am consistently not happy with the performance from administration and the teachers we have had. They need to step it up and have more interest in my child's future. Where have all the dedicated caring teachers gone?
