As a tutor/mentor the staff made it very hard to find information about the student schedules and more information about the students progress. I felt as if they are just allowing the students to do bare minimal . In other terms " Passing them alone so then once they are done its not the school problem" The majority of students are not prepared for college. New students that transfer to the school are not assisted by guidance counselors to deal with separation and personality disorders. I asked my student how can we prepare for class when you have "NO BOOKS". I was told you cant... After visiting the school I found out that majority of the courses are online. Hmm... In order to help my student I need a syllabus of the work and a book or guide. Instead, I was told that I have to depend on the student to get the book from a teacher. How can I depend on the student when the main reason I need the book is because the student is not complying. So in other words I guess I will have no book. I was told I can contact the students teachers via email. Well all of them did not respond except for one. Hmm. Useless!!! I am very upset and it feels as if the school is setting the students up for FAILURE!!! All I want to do is help my students out but your making it impossible to do so when your website is USELESS AND YOUR STAFF!!!

School spirit is wonderful among students & staff! My child wishes there were lockers so badly due to amount of things for each class & never wants to be absent for fear of falling behind. One teacher sends weekly updates on agenda. PTA is awesome & volunteers go the extra mile to make events memorable for everyone. My child says it would be nice if more teachers cared but still has most favorites & those teachers help make school & learning fun. Every school will have its pros and cons. There are areas for improvement but overall it’s a nice environment.

This school is nothing but a check the box school they can care less of children’s safety or education they don’t notice when kids stop coming do to safety concerns and they say they will help but only punish the kids trying to do the right thing multiple administrators have failed this school and when your having kids coming to you saying there is a problem and you don’t involve the parents before the issue gets more involved. Just big time unsafe with fighting happening with multiple students on the daily.

My son was in kindergarten when his father passed away, and his teachers and the counselor support system, or extremely helpful to my son and I. He is an uprising second grader now, and I look forward to continuing his elementary learning career at the school. Each teacher takes the time to get to know how much child learns and give him the patients that he needs in order to succeed, and I am beyond grateful for them!
