While I felt that my 4 children were safe at the school, I did not feel the school staff really cared about my kids as human beings and it really hurt. One of the paraeducators (my son is special needs and non-verbal) told me flat out that it was not her job to even acknowledge my son, even though she worked directly with him and the head teacher agreed with her. it really hurt, if you have a child with special needs avoid the school at all costs. I do feel that some staff/teachers are polite/ kind and DID care about my kids but most just put on a show, (including the principle and office staff) it's just a job to most of them. And they play favorites, so if you are not from around the area, your child doesn't get "choosen" for special events and other things. Also not good for advanced students either, the school caters more to the hispanic community (great for kids who are behind or don't know English language well) but if your child is either far advanced or special needs don't expect much other than a mediocre education.

I went here from 2012 to 2016. I enjoy the school a lot and learned a lot about AG I was part of FFA I was president of the shop clue. The only thing I felt bad was the fact if you started on any team you were basically safe from punishment.
