GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
The principal Mr. Nalic has no backbone and this school is falling apart under his leadership. He is never around to deal with issues at this school. He does not respond to emails and he does not face parents when being confronted. Several classrooms are without a teacher because this principal has not made the effort to hire credentialed teachers and he has to resort to long term substitutes. He does not provide these substitutes with teaching material and the students are not learning anything without a teacher in the classroom. I think the school district needs to do well by this school and put a leadership in place that will actually do their job.
