GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
This school literally locks parents out. You have to stand outside and wait to sign your child out, then wait outside to receive your child. This school does not want to communicate or conference with parents. If you ask questions they either ignore your questions or act as though you are a problem. Children get hurt and they act as if the child that gets hurt is at fault. It is the worst school I have ever been associated with. No wonder the scores are so low and they are a failing school.
