  • Rating: 2 (2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
  • This used to be a very good school when i was attending it. But now my kids are in fourth and first and the staff there just do not seem to work to good with my children. I have contacted the teachers and the counselor and my issues seem to be getting worse and not better. I honestly think that you all could do better.
