The parent community is wonderful, however it is not the parents that are teaching our children during the school day. This school is very old fashioned, putting more value on student attendance than mental health. Teachers are strict in the way they expect children to behave within the classroom. My student has even experienced their teacher telling them they are not allowed to ask questions, not once, but on a regular basis. They follow a "this is the way I teach and you better learn this way" mindset instead of being open to the diverse range of ways children learn best. If your student does not learn the way they want they will be labeled as disruptive, even when they're just exhibiting age appropriate behavior. Communication from the school is lacking. For example, calls home from the nurse when your child has a rash but does not require to be picked up. However, if your child was pushed down the stairs by another student and goes to the nurse you won't hear about it until your child tells you. Notes home to parents in the student's assignment notebook instead of phone calls or emails to the parent for serious issues such as bullying. If there is a field trip you will only hear about it one week in advance. If you indicate you are able to chaperone the fieldtrip there will be no further communication with you on whether you are actually chosen to go.I would not recommend this school to anyone looking to raise an emotionally stable and intelligent child.

Great school! Happy I sent my child to this school, the teachers are great.
