I attended this school for around 3-4 years. LISTEN TO THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS! This school was the most draining school I had ever entered. There, I was made fun of, had my friends bullied, got targeted by NOT ONLY THE STUDENTS, but the administration and staff. Not only were the teachers constantly disrespected and rude towards all students, but some had made rude remarks towards my friends, causing most of them to cry and experience feelings no child should experience. The counselor is a joke. They don’t give any help and look appalled when a student comes in for mental help. Apparently, from what I’ve perceived, there is a huge favor system. If you’re weirdly close with the teachers and have a relation with the staff, NOTHING you do is wrong. Many of my friends have gotten bullied then suspended for days for fighting back, but the bullies and initiators get little to no punishment. The only respectful and nice staff were the lunch ladies.Overall, I never felt like I belonged at this school and I am so glad that I’ll never see this place ever again. When a previous student, and MULTIPLE students and teachers tell you not to send your student here, DO NOT ignore them. For the wellbeing of your student(s), find a better school.

If you are looking for a school with a communal feel where parents are familiar not only with their child's teacher but with all administration and teachers in other grades, this is the school for your child. Even the custodial and cafeteria staff know all the children by name and are greeted by them on a daily basis. Teachers know their craft, know their students and families. This is my 4th year teaching at this school and I have never taught at a school that has felt like everyone is family and everyone's opinion matters. This school is very strong on diversity and social/emotional learning. Children learn that differences are a norm and how to advocate for other children who are having a difficult day. There are times, where I am walking down the hall and I get tackled from behind with a big hug from a student. Teachers absolutely love their little scholars and they feel important and understand that teachers want them to succeed. Teachers are extremely knowledgeable in their craft. Special Education department is flexible and knowledgeable. Special Education teachers advocate for their student's need to provide the tools they need to be successful in the classroom.
