We have had a 5 star experience at this school. For a public school we believe they have performed better than the local private schools in so many areas. They are very good at communication and when there have been discrepancies they have been accountable in every way. Their approach to education is progressive and my daughter did very well academically while attending this school, compared to her time at the local catholic school, learning is fun! They offer great after school clubs where the children are celebrated for being a member. They offer celebrations and social events throughout the year - we have lived our time here!

If your kids are BIPOC, do not send them here. Period.My kids were the only black kids in their classes. This wouldn't have been an issue if it weren't for the blatant racism they endured from the adults and kids at this school.From the teacher moving my child's desk away from the other kids and into a corner by herself because she was being bullied by a boy there, to the principal wanting me to choose a time for my child's detention without telling me why she was getting one (that same boy called my daughter a racial slur and she rightfully punched him), to the teacher's assistant screaming at my child and snatching a drawing she was working on, balling it up, and throwing it in the trash, this school was absolute HELL on my family.And I can't forget when the teacher kicked my daughter out of class and made her go in the hallway because she wouldn't stand and say the pledge of allegiance (which is illegal to do btw).All of those incidents were for just one kid. The crazy part is the principal told me that the teachers just started diversity training toward the end of the school year. Really?? After the damage was done?Children can tell when their teacher doesn't like them. So my baby spent 7 hours a day, 5 days a week, with an adult authority figure who showed her that she didn't like her with her actions and tone of voice. My heart hurts just remembering.If anyone ever does a class action lawsuit against this school, I'd gladly join. But there's no removing the racial trauma my babies experienced here.

This school is horrible. For the seniors the have a most likely and of course its supposed to be a fun thing. NO. NO, its not just a fun little thing the kids do its a bulling bulletin board for the kids who are picked on. This school thought that it would be fine to have a most likely to live in there parents BASEMENT. Now I know that sometimes the teachers are not involved but obviously it has to be looked through. I am truly disappointed and disgusted.
