This is by far the worst school to send your special needs kid. They are horrible with communication. They will let your kid escape the building on a daily. My kid leaned some new fowl words that aren’t used at home. I believe the staff bullies my kid and nothing gets done about it. Also my kid has
Posted by a parent on 2/21/2026The kids here are completely out of control, and there’s barely any real punishment for their behavior. Teachers gossip about students’ personal lives and even their mental health, openly telling other kids things that should be private. Some teachers say downright inappropriate, out-of-pocket thing
Posted by a student on 3/25/2025They do not care! Be prepared for your child to pick up additional behaviors once transferred here!

Posted by a community member on 2/13/2017Prior to this year, I would've rated this school 5 stars - due to the excellent staff and their commitment to children who struggle.This year...communication sucks!

3/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageStarting with the office staff they are very short with parents and not friendly. The teachers are suppose to use IXL in the classroom for the kids and I have it set up to receive notification when my son completes task and unless I do this at home with him, I don’t receive any notifications!
