"I don’t think they would like it because there may not be a dog run nearby. Dogs are very common here. People who consistently pick up after their dog, not as common. "

8/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI had the opportunity to attend a particular school that presented considerable challenges for my learning journey, necessitating the engagement of a tutor. While the teachers were generally amiable, their instructional abilities were lacking, and their level of investment in our education was noticeably inadequate. Moreover, there appeared to be an undisclosed policy of favoritism, where students were expected to purchase gifts for teachers, often under circumstances that felt coercive. Additionally, the expectation for teachers to reciprocate this practice with the school's administrators seemed unusual and potentially questionable in terms of legality.Another aspect that raised concerns was the preferential treatment granted to the principal, such as exclusive access to private parking, while the rest of the community had to find alternative solutions. Furthermore, occasional instances of expired food being served at the school were observed, raising doubts about the overall commitment to health and safety standards.Financial management at the institution appeared perplexing, as excessive expenditures were allocated to non-essential items, while necessary resources that could greatly benefit students were deemed unaffordable. Although my initial experience was positive due to the friendships I formed, the overall quality of education deteriorated significantly over time. The curriculum seemed lacking, leaving little room for substantial growth and development.In light of these concerns, it is with regret that I must assign a rating of one star to this institution. Consequently, I cannot wholeheartedly recommend enrolling your child here, particularly if you prioritize their educational advancement and overall well-being.Teacher Review2y ago11 Reviews - Bais Yitzchak Yeshiva
