The Principal at this school is heinous. She cannot put aside her own person vendettas and opinions. She does not care about the kids or their experiences. If your child is bullied and physically assaulted she will punish the bully and the child assaulted and any other child trying to intervene. She refuses to allow my son to ride on a bus that drives past us every single morning because she doesn’t like me and has allowed him to be bussed in the past. She mocks me and rolls her eyes and raises her voice. Only to not follow through on standards she sets. She has inappropriate conversations with children beyond parents backs. My child was pulled for counseling sessions and bribed with toys and only found out from my child. I never gave consent and she told me my ex did and he did not. I have a bad coparenting situation and she only made it worse. You can’t report her because the superintendent will side with her and responded to me with an email where she didn’t even finish her own sentence. The bus director deemed the walking route unsafe she did not care. I take my son to school screaming and crying everyday and sometimes soaked and freezing because of inclement weather. I’ve pulled him for my own mental well being as well as his and she felt it appropriate to have a side bar conversation with him telling him he can come back to school whenever he wants?! She will also violate your HIPPA right and speak to others inside and outside of the district offering her personal opinions about yon and your life. The teachers are somehow incredible regardless of their leader. The fact there are over 90 kids being homeschooled locally speaks volumes. I know parents that moved to get their children into a better school district. The below review is accurate. Only the wealthy and elite matter.

Has provided a solid education for our children. Has been especially good at math and English. Overall, though, would say that athletics are valued more than academics.
