Would not recommend although teachers do a great job, the ladies in the office are extremely caddy. My child went here for 3 years and although we loved the teachers every year, the blonde behind the desk in the office was almost always talking about students to another adult or making fun of the less fortunate kids when they would come in for the morning med or if they didn't feel good. I can't even count how many times I personally seen adult bullying. Not to mention, when bullying does happen, not much is done, teachers tell the kids being treated badly to quite tattling. Also the principle {Raddaz) seems nice and friendly but she is two faced, lots of other parents feel that way also. My student also struggled every single year while he was here and never actually grew. Once he moved schools he has greatly excelled, his scores have skyrocketed a whole 5 grade levels and he isn't dealing with bullying anymore. The smaller schools around the county are so much nicer, more laxed and smaller class sizes really help with one on one situations to get your child where they should be, education wise and mental health wise. Like I said, love the teachers and all the hard work they put in, there are some really, really great ones but man, the two ladies in the office, they need voted out.

Not supportive of different ideas. They do not teach students how to think, they teach them what to think. They teach kids how to google stuff and have their faces in screens all day.
