We had a pretty negative experience here. We had a good experience with our primary teacher, who effectively diversified the curriculum to meet our advanced learner, and worked with other teachers to enable them additional opportunities. She was enthusiastic and caring. However, we did not have good experiences with the administration or special needs support staff, who were not only ineffective and biased but overtly condescending in meetings. I had an employee literally laugh at my usage of a specific type of testing terminology. Additionally, the health aide staff was not equipped to follow directions on the requisite health forms for my special needs student, and literally endangered their life by not following the simple instructions as given by the doctor. I have nothing but negative feelings for this school, unfortunately. If you have an average child with no special/health needs, you might have an ok experience here. But if you need to take advantage of support programs that are supposed to be offered to all students fairly, please be aware that there will be battles. In fact, I was told I would not get the support services unless I hired an "advocate." I had an entirely opposite experience at the other close by LCPS elementary school, which we have now embraced and attend. Lastly, if you have health issues that are supposed to be supported by the health office, please know that they are not knowledgeable or reliable.

Poor Leadership, pull the door badge records the principal is gone by 2:00pm. Gym classes have zero structure it's nothing more then out of control recess. I would not recommend this school.

I am currently going to this school and honestly, it's an ok school. Some of the teachers are very nice and others aren't as nice. My current counselors and deans are very nice and understanding but the teachers I have can be scary. Most teachers just throw projects at us left and right and then don't tell us how to accomplish our goals. Teachers just continue to talk and now no one pays attention to what they are talking about. I think the kids at this school should be able to have their phones in the classroom because what if there is a lockdown or fire drill and we need to reach our parents? I think this school is great for kids with disabilities. Everyone is really kind to them and understanding. Some of the teachers yell at some students for no reason. Also, this school has a 5th lunch which is from 1:18-2:03. That should be illegal because by the time it's lunch my whole class is starving, getting light headed and can't focus on the lesson. We should be able to eat snacks without being yelled at. Also, this school is very supportive of lgbtq. However, my history teacher this one time said "We have all white people in here. Oh wait, we have two black people." Which I find racist. Also the history teacher shouldn't have said that because that made one of my friends feel bad and I am mixed and so are several other of my friends in that class. The teachers need to work on not assuming people's races, staying out of drama, and yelling at students for no reason. There's this thing called a gaggle that the teacher gets every single time a word comes up. But then the teachers read through all the drama and then come to you and try to help you which is not ok because it's your business and not theirs. There are some circumstances where that is ok but not when it's drama. Overall, I have made a lot of friends in this school and most of the teachers are very kind.
