9/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageIf you have a child that have an IEIP, I highly recommend to look somewhere else. I just withdrawal both of my kids , my son was for 6 months and he got anxiety to the point that he was not able to focus and he couldn't sleep any more , I spoke with the principal many time about my concerns and she denied me the access to.my son classroom to see why he was so depressed finally I was able to visited in Christmas to fimd out that my son was in a classroom with kids with several autism. My daughter got Bruce's all the time and again the school denied violence I saw her classmate hitting to the assistant on the face outside the school. My daughter never hava bruces before and not after I removed them. I wish I could find out this early, my two kids are traumatized about avalon. We found a great school where they are together with all.kids without exclusions, avalon never included the kids with ieip on the school events , they keep the In the back Classroom all together regardless of they have minor conditionThe principal is a prophesional lier on you on face with an smiling. Never again!Parent Review1y ago - Castle Creek Elementary School
