Would not recommend. The school has a lot of potential, but it feels disorganized and communication could be much better. Some teachers are great and really care, but the overall experience has been frustrating. The rules are inconsistent, problems don’t always get addressed, and it can feel like students aren’t being listened to. The food isn’t great, and the environment isn’t always the most welcoming. Hopefully things improve because this school could be much better.

The school is run very poorly. The principal is leaving this year but I don’t have confidence much will change. They will lie directly to your face; they try to undermine minority students through preferred programs like DE or in general. Don’t be fooled by the tokens. They are partial in every way which is not right to students. They also have a teacher and bus driver that are making inappropriate comments to girls and trying to hold them back to be alone with them. But they don’t address those things.

Not a fan of this school.Her teacher was switched within the first 2 months of school. I didn't love this as my daughter is in KK, so too many changes can be hard for young children, but thats life.When her new teacher started (brand new out of college), it became clear that she didn't have much of an understanding of the common functioning of 5yr Olds. This led to months of constant calls from the teacher and my child being assumed to be the issue in many problems that were simple misunderstandings/bickering between the children, or nuances that 5 yr olds havent learned yet(my child has no idea what flipping someone off is). When speaking to the principal about this, he dismissed me quickly and made no effort to make me feel my child was safe in their care.After speaking with several other parents from my child's class, and finding out they were also being told their children were being "difficult" with no prior issues with any other teachers. There was a common thread. The new teacher. She was fresh out of college and still learning. I get it, we all have to start somewhere, but I draw the line at my daughter crying to not go to school every morning and having all the happiness sucked out of school. She had no confidence b/c she was always in trouble and felt like she could never make her teacher happy. Building her confidence back since leaving this school has been a task. I don't know what was happening in that classroom, but the lack of help from administration and constant pointing the finger to my daughter rather than working together astounds me. I will be the first to admit my child isn't perfect. She makes bad decisions sometimes, but after everything I have learned and the in depth convos with her teacher who couldn't actually tell me specifics about why she was in trouble. Many things she got in trouble for, the teacher made an assumption and did not see the incident. My daughter doesnt typically argue with adults. If you said she did it, she will just say ok, im sorry. She doesnt stand up for herself very well. Since moving schools, we have had zero issues.
