We had an amazing experience with this school. Our neurodivergent son absolutely loved the pre-K program and truly flourished during his time here. We are so grateful for the teaching staff and the incredible support they provided. It was clear every day how much they genuinely cared about the children and how deeply invested they were in each child’s growth, development, and education.

I like this school because there security my daughter is very happy

The teachers at this school are genuinely amazing and are the main reason students get through the year. They care about their students as people, not just as names on a roster. Many of them are kind, understanding, and willing to listen, give advice, and build real relationships with students. Because of them, this school has real potential.Unfortunately, my experience with the administration and front office staff was extremely negative. Interactions often felt cold, dismissive, and unnecessarily rude, with the exception of the counselors, who were consistently respectful and supportive.In my experience, the administration handles discipline in a way that feels unfair, inconsistent, and frustrating. Punishments often seem based more on appearances than on what actually happened, even when context or witness accounts are involved. Situations involving conflict or self-defense were treated the same as intentional wrongdoing, which makes students feel unheard and powerless. This approach sends the message that standing up for yourself is punished just as harshly as causing harm, and it raises serious concerns about how bullying and student safety are handled.I would recommend this school only because of the teachers, who truly care and make a positive difference despite the administration.
