Disappointed. Since the Principal arrived 6 kids have moved to a different school.qe had a few issues at school and she ignored them. She treats the kids as if rhey are in high school. Overall Disappointed sending kids to this school. One of the teacher's has been there for many years and needs to retire. She has no patience with the children. Too many breaks and less academics. Its a small school bullying is a huge issue partly because the principal is ineffective when it comes to accountability. I wish i did not have to give a star. This school is a zero star school. So many issues and no accountability.
