Education is not that bad, but staff are horrible at handing situations, student wellbeing support, and handling bullying. Staff are rude and ignorant, ESPECIALLY the front office and VICE principal.

From the very beginning of my daughter switching to this school, it has been an absolute nightmare and NOTHING I would expect from a school. From safety concerns, student behavior, lack of teacher response, enrollment, administration.

Kids walking home 3 miles I've had my kid get heatstroke walking home. Bring the busses back. The amount the school gets paid per child we should have busses available for these kids. Pick up for kindergarten they have us in 120 degrees waiting while a lady calls kids 1 by 1 there is NO order and no plan to make this better. Kids at recess SHOULD BE ABLE TO HAVE THEIR WATER BOTTLES NOT BE FORCED TO DRINK IN OUTSIDE WATER FOUNTAIN.
