I don't recommend this school at all, I had incident with my daughter and no one care for this school to communicate or resolve this issue. The bus driver didn't show up yesterday to drop off my daughter, she doesn't have a cell phone to let me know. The school had her to stay outside in the street waiting for another bus driver to drop her off. It took from him two hours to drop her off. During this time I didn't know anything about my daughter, tried to call the school, the district, the transportations ... no response. My husband went there and the school was closed . Finally I called the police who connected me with the ISD which wasn't helpful at all. This morning I went to school to meet the principle . she refused to meet me because she is busy. Seriously!!!!! so bad school and district I will file complaint and reach out to highest level if possible. Once it's affected the kids safety no Joke in there.
