Great school! Needs after school sports. Kids need a chance to be ready for high school sports. I think after school programs would really involve parents with the school and make the school known.

I have two kids in this school. One in 8th grade the other in 3rd. Their teachers are really good, I like their system and the way that they involve the student. I think that the lack of involvement of the parents is not a school issue at least in this case.

This is probably one of the worst schools that I have had my children in. The teachers will not communicate with the parents even when you are in a face to face meeting. The principal has no regard for the concerns of the parents. There are teachers here that are doing a good job, just not enough of

I have transfered my kids twice in the last 2 years in search for a better school. This school year for my kids has been better situation in all. I had an issue with a child picking on my child and it was taken care of quickly and reasonably. The principle did take both sides of the childrens story-

The education has by far surpassed the previous 'alternative/charter school-waste of a year' and other public school. I do agree that they do need extra ciricular activities that will be useful, such as drama, spanish, etc- that other public schools have. I will have to post later as the school year goes on.

I am very diappointed in this school and the fact that we don't have many choices on this side of town so go to an alternate school. There are 29 children in my child's class and it is still growing.

My daughter entered this school in the 8th grade and loved it. She loved the teachers. The only complaint that we had was that they sent out notices last minute. Also, the 8th grade teachers would promise their classes rewards like pizza, ice cream, etc, for various things. Then the day before the

We didn't agree w/that practice since the teachers promised it, not the parents and what about the parents that couldn't afford these last minute costs. The teachers need to communicate things like that w/the parents prior to promising the students and allow the parents time to prepare for the unforeseen expense. Read less
