Absolutely awful. The school has a bad bullying problem, and the staff won’t do anything about it. What’s worse is that the staff is able to sink low enough to become hostile to a child that is not responsible for their situation in life, or the bullying that child faces. I still wonder how these educators can sleep at night, not only knowing full-well that members of their own class are assaulting another student, but letting it happen anyway. Shame on you all.

Poor and unsatisfactory I am highly disappointed in our experience with this school and district leaders

When it comes to learning, my child has improved 100% since being here. But I will say the staff isn't very friendly, and if you want to be involved as a parent its very limited, almost non existent. The teachers are very strict, and my kid doesn't feel as if the teachers care about him at all. They,re too focused on the lil things that don't matter

The school is located in a low income area & the school is out dated. Overall the teachers worked with what they have but mostly teach to test which so far have not helped because they are still sub par. Parents are involved and that is nice to see. Special Needs students lack the support they need to excel because the services are not available and the school is not equipped to give the tools they need. Over all the school is fine if your child is an average student anything else look elsewhere.
