I've spent 4 years in this school, K-3rd. During the time I was there, the teachers had helped me tremendously with academics. With the help of all of them I was able to transfer to GATE in the 4th grade. In the time I spent there I saw no bullying, apart from the occasional They aren't allowed to play with me kids. Out of all the schools I've been to this one has been the cleanest. Though I don't know how the school has changed with the new principal, I had only been there when Mrs. Dailey was the principal. I can only hope that they have kept the standards.

I went to this school from kindergarten to 5th grade. While the school did allow me to grow greatly in my academic studies, this school fell short in taking care of my bullying situation. I was bullied starting from kindergarten and not one teacher or other staff member here did anything about it for the whole 6 years I went here. I hate to say this but the worst part of my childhood was spent at this school.

This school has lots of parent helpers. But, most of the teachers are very lazy to grade the homework. They don't even take a look at homework. Teachers are spoiled by the many volunteers & constant contributions of supplies, gift cards or anything they need.
