Parent Rating Average
The school curriculum is decent, but the staff is very unorganized. They even let me check my son out early without checking my ID, which I am not okay with. Parent pickup is beyond awful every day, as there is no order. I fear that a child is going to get hurt or kidnapped because no one seems to be watching them at all!
