The teachers aren't bad it's the administration they've harrassed me for appraching the teacher about my son and for telling them that the way they treat my child is unjust. They've made multiple demeaning comments to my child in front of my face, they hire personnel that are questionable at best and their demeanor to solving problems in the classroom is absolutely horrid is like they dont care they just like to say they do. I would never ever recommend this school to anyone it is a living nightmare and my child is having nightmares so bad he's affraid to wake up alone and has even started hiding in the morning with the prospect of not having to go to school. This school needs to be investiagted and/or the people in administration and management need to be fired as nothing other than the teacher works here.

"Pretty good but could be way better and more streamline. The train doesn’t run at the time I need it to get to Spring Valley so I take the bus which isn’t horrible but yeah you need a car because it’s super restrictive. The bus and train only go but so far."

"The dog owners don’t like to clean up after their dogs. They leave the floor a mess with leavings and there seems to be no attempt to clean it like full turds on the way to family dollar. "
