3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI never never never sent my kid to that school again!!! worst school worst teacher ever! We went to special ed. program with this school and that was a joke. Teacher had no idea what is special ed. is about. I was really upset all the time and we decided to move.

4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageNot what is expected. The reviews and ratings are completely off. there is no connection between what school ratings are there and what kids expereince. Cannot understand if the kids are segregated on economic levels in the 2 houses. It's not very clear. Child says all the hispanic kids are in one house and white kids are in other house. Am shocked if this is true.Other Review2y ago
