This school is OK. The teachers are great, at least the ones I've encountered. I have a 1st grader and 8th grader about to start the school year. They have been there for a few years. Ones of the issues I have is with the special education program that's offered. I don't feel students are getting th
Posted by a parent on 8/2/2025They do not care about students health. In the Polar Wortex weather conditions they forced students to attend school even though all schools in the town are closed.
Posted by a parent on 1/20/2025I highly recommend the school. Before sending our children there, we were new to the area and were nervous about a new school. We have more than one child going to the school and I can say that we are very happy with the teachers, the facilities and the school in general.
Posted by a parent on 6/4/2024I hate this school it makes me wanna get out there too strict they say to respect them but they don’t give it back like one time the Vice principal told me he was worried for my mental health when you don’t know the story it doesn’t sound bad he told my mom that I’m always being “dishonest “ I
Posted by a student on 4/15/2024Should care more about the students learning disability, rather than being rated number 9 and high test scores

NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy child has been hit by other students and no one notified me despite them coming home with marks and welts. The staff also tried to blame my child for over reacting or lying, despite having physical proof. Also getting them into to speech program has taken since October, and they're still not in as of April. The teacher is curt and cold to the kids at pick-up, just literally shoving them off to parents. Another classmate has bruises on their flank allegedly from a teacher trying to get them to sit. Teacher withheld reward for having a hole in my childs shoe. This is not my child's fault and should not be missing out on the school experience because I couldn't afford new shoes right away. I cannot recommend this school to another parent. This teacher does not care about the well-being and safety of the students and neither does the school for letting this continue after seeing evidence and complaints from multiple parents. I feel incredibly guilty for keeping my child at this school. If it were not for the false illusion of getting them speech and it we would have left right away.Parent Review1mo ago - New Horizon Center For The Dd
