  • This was a very good school when I was a student. I had excellent teachers and my fellow classmates were motivated. Most of us have achieved many goals and are successful members of society.
    I want to thank my teachers for the time and effort spent toward my education.

  • When I went there the teacher were real losers.
    I can't even name one who did their job.
    Even wallace was lacking.
    He let the other principles handle his job.
    Wich most were always ready to jump at what ever idea came to mind.
    Wich wasn't much.
    I left due to the poor teaching efforts.
    I would never tell anyone to go to this school.
    It is a waste.

  • This school is not a good place if your child has any innocence at all when they start. The (...) outnumber all the other races and they are very verbal about being in charge. The best thing I can say about this school is Thank God for Mr.Rhodes who is an excellent teacher and who really cares. Mr.Schaffer is also a good teacher although still fairly new. The biggest problem I say this school has is the lack of interest or concern of the parents. When my child acts up I actually go to the school and I pop in on my child from time to time. We need to take responsibility for our own kids behavior!
