(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Overall my experience with this school has been extremely negative. My opinion is that this school is poorly run and poorly organized. I have had numerous negative experiences with this school ranging from teacher, clerical staff and principal communication, to transportation, and finally to SAFETY issues. Just today my 5-year-old grandson was dropped off and left at the bus stop by the bus driver with no adult there to pick him up! By the grace of God he was not harmed before another parent alerted the school and a member of the staff was able to pick him up and return him to school safely! I would NOT recommend this school to anyone, and hope soon to be able to move my grandson out of this awful environment.
