I am extremely disappointed with this school. On my child’s very first day, they experienced bullying, and I was never notified when a fight occurred involving one of my sons. My children, who have always been straight-A students, were there for only a month and a half and are now at risk of not advancing to the next grade—something that makes absolutely no sense.The school assigns a heavy load of homework, but the children are not being properly taught, so they can’t even complete it successfully. One of my children’s teachers yells constantly and does not seem fit to be in the classroom. In less than two months, my kids went from loving school and learning to absolutely hating it.We withdrew them and returned to Texas because the education system here feels like it’s set up to fail students. It seems the school cares more about the money they receive per child than actually educating them. I would not recommend this school to anyone.
