GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
This school has an amazingly beautiful campus, offers free breakfast and lunch to all students, and offers some cool classes like drumming when funds are available. Some of the teachers at this school are absolutely great. But the leadership is terrible. The principal has poor judgment, is a terrible communicator, and always needs to do what she wants in the way she wants it done. She seems to have very little effective leadership experience and it unfortunately seems to be hurting the school.
