We had a really bad experience in this school. We moved from out state, and my kids were zoned for this school. In 3rd grade, my son had a 24-year-old, new-graduate teacher that had no clue how to treat children. She would constantly threat my son with referrals and would call us on a weekly basis to complain about his behavior for the any little thing. She and the school counselor even suggested that we take him to a specialist for evaluation. It has been two years since this happened. My son is in a different school now, and he is thriving. He is an A-B student and has been a safety patrol because of his good behavior. I never took my son to any "specialist." He has never been a problematic child.

This school is a joke, especially if your child has special needs. Had to pull my child out of this school and place them in a private school. Literally will call me within 1 hour to pick my child up due to my child disrupting a special needs class. My child has autism and the teacher did not know how to handle my non verbal child who stims and gets overwhelmed in new situations. Don’t think my child lasted 2 months in that school. Not a special needs friendly school.

It is a good school but needs to listen more to the students instead of being told that they will get in trouble for just telling someone to not talk to them teachers needs to start paying more attention of whats going on

I really like the school. The teachers communicate with the parents daily & weekly. I love the fact that my son feels comfortable going to school everyday. I attended a thanksgiving dinner they had for the parents and kids last year and it was nice, sitting down to eat lunch with my child. My son has made a lot of friends and LOOKS FORWARD to going to school everyday.
