This school has a lot of negatives but the primary issue with this school is they do not want parents around and it is generally unsafe for children. This school is very unfriendly to parents and frequently yell at parents and are rude and unkind, They have a huge sign in the lobby that says no parents beyond this point but really they mean no parents are welcome at this school. When my child was in kinder and struggled to walk to class on her own the office worker would run up to me and tell me I could not walk her a few feet to her classroom as she was crying. Then this year I picked her up early they had me show my id and put it in a machine to verify my identify, which is great for safety, my daughter never came she walked right out the side door of the school and wandered the parking lot looking for me. If parents are not allowed to help there children then someone better be helping them. This school just cannot be trusted. There is no transparency between teachers and parents, no communication, and the staff does not communicate between each other. yesterday I was taking my daughter to the bookfair as I was chased down by someone office worker yelling "MAM; MAM MAM EXCUSE ME"-- scaring my daughter, I explained I was going to the bookfair she said "DIDN'T. YOU SEE THE BIG YELLOW SIGN THAT SAYS NO PARENTS!!" screaming at me in front of my child. I let her know I would verify this with the librarian and she said YOU BETTER. There is really no reason for screaming when she could just as easily walked up to me and talked to me like a human being. As I arrived to the bookfair parents and children were there and many more parents arrived. Unnecessarily rude treatment by staff to parents. This school does not want parents around and feels they are an unnecessary part of their children education, it is also sad when school personal treat other so rudely but try to teach children values of kindness and good character-- it just does not line up.
