My daughter learned more in the final 6 weeks here than she had the previous 8 months elsewhere. They welcome family engagement and embody community. They are a positive discipline lab school, one of the few, and ensure all staff have continued education and it’s implemented in the classroom. Additionally, parents are offered training too if they’d like it. This school is small but mighty and a wonderful community.

Hi, I’m a current student. I been here for a few years, and my experience here has been terrible. This school traumatized me so much. This school damaged my mental health. The teachers are okay, but some is just terrible. The teachers have a lack of supervision, on class, and free time. For an example, my friend was getting beaten up by another classmate. The teachers didn’t do anything, even though they were in yard duty. They were just talking, not focusing on their job. Me and my friend came and helped her. We told the teachers but they didn’t help at all. One time, in class there was a classmate bullying my tablemate, the teacher and student teacher was there in the class, but they didn’t help at all. The classmate was calling my tablemate terrible names. My tablemate got so upset by the bullying that they flipped over the table, threw his computer and screamed very loud. My teacher was out while the student teacher was there. My teacher came and help the situation, while the student teacher didn’t help at all. This student teacher is good at teaching but have a lack of supervision. Students here are very toxic. They will talk bad about you no matter what. They will talk bad about you even if you are their friend. You can never trust nobody here really. I had so many toxic friends in this school and it just ruined my mental health. I never felt safe to tell the teachers, I don’t feel comfortable in this school. Students here will bully you for no reason. And teachers do nothing at all to help. People here will hurt you purposely. Staff here is just terrible, they do not help nothing at all. Teachers and staff don’t help with anything, some of the teachers is just have a bad teaching style. Teachers and staff don’t help with anything bad, but they make a fuss when the person do nothing wrong. If you are a staff reading this, please do you job. It’s important to help the students here, mostly students here have a bad mental health because staff doesn’t do nothing at all. The staff here needs to help more with the students mental state and teaching. So please do your job.

As a parent, I truly appreciate the care, dedication, and support this school has shown my children and our family. The principal, teachers and staff work hard to create a positive and welcoming environment where students feel seen, encouraged, and supported academically and emotionally.What stands out most is the sense of community. The staff genuinely care about student success and take the time to communicate with families and support each child’s growth. I’ve seen my children build confidence, friendships, and valuable skills during their time here.I also appreciate the opportunities the school provides for students to get involved through activities, events, and leadership experiences. It’s clear that many staff members go above and beyond for their students.No school is perfect, but overall, our experience has been positive, and I’m grateful for the educators and staff who continue to pour into our children every day. I love this school and school district. Thank you for all that you do for our students and families.

Great teachers, staff and principal. They are very involved with each child and super communicative with parents.
