Pros:1. Engaged students, teachers and parents. Active parent-driven PTA provides extracurricular community events and supports parent engagement including in-class parent volunteer activities.2. School administrators and teachers develop personal bonds with families and students and are invested in students’ learning experience. 3. Robust music curriculum.Cons: 1. Technology-heavy teacher-guided instruction limits hands-on learning, drastically reduces memory retention, prevents practice of fine motor learning skills in handwriting and art, and removes teacher from interactive oversight of student progress. 2. District policies and leadership appear to emphasize equity and social justice themes that are generally viewed as proper role for parents, which distracts from public school primary purpose to provide effective delivery of core reading, writing, math and science subjects and a sound learning environment.

according to staff water fountains have not been cleaned in YEARS. when you fill up a cup or clear bottle or even take a sip it becomes very evident that they are being truthful. additionally they will refuse to let students buy a water (even if they can’t afford it) i want my child to be in a SAFE community and while some areas of this district do reflect safety, this issue shows how little they care about student health.

Unfortunately, the school's rating is falling down.
