GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
I would never enrolled my child back into this school. This is the WORST school I have ever seen in my life. The teacher are mean and very unprofessional, they think it's okay to use bad language with students and parents. I don't understand how some of these teachers have been teaching here for years but couldn't teach a rock what's 2+2 my child had to help the teacher to teach the class. And I've also noticed that there are a lot of children with autism in this school and these teacher act like they don't want to be bothered with them. There is a lot of bullying going on from the students and the teacher. Overall if you don't want your child or children to not have a future this would be the perfect school for you.
