Over all I would give the school an 8. One of my children started here in 4th grade and had an awesome experience. The other child started in kindergarten and had an awesome kindergarten teacher, unfortunately no longer with the school. We had one incident in 4th grade (not with other kids). They could have handled it much better but didn't. As a parent, I didn't see a satisfactory outcome from my complaints on how the situation was handled. It was definitely a learning experience. Trust was lost for myself and my child. Aside from that, it has been good.
