School Reviews
2 1/17/2011
Academic programs are lacking at best. My child can read Emily Dickinson, and I have been warned repeatedly that she is lacking in reading skills and may need additional help.
Facilities are dingy and small, and the outer grounds are covered in glass, debris, litter and crumbling walls. There is no area outside that I would be comfortable having my child play in outside of school, yet this is where they spend their recess periods daily.
The staff pay little attention to the children, giving little care to medical conditions and known allergies, and excluding them from activities they have parental permission to attend, without so much as a call home to discuss it with the parent.
