GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
New buildings of this school is really the only reason I gave 2 stars instead on 1. Education at this school is at really low level. My son is out of 1st grade and despite that he does not know adding and subtracting within 10 fluently, they keep reporting that "Standard Nearly Met"!. If that is the standard for this school, then I am really upset and regret that my child lost time in this school learning nothing. Teachers are mostly young college grads that do not have enough experience and do not share any information with parents how children progress during the year. Absolutely no cooperation with parents on any alarming issues where parents need to help. I see that some children in that school still do not speak English almost at all and nobody cares.
