School Reviews
2 2/11/2020
This school is great academically. Unfortunately, we had a third grade teacher who repeatedly cried on my kid's shoulder about growing up without a father. She also refused to protect my kid when a bully was daily putting his hands all over her. My communications were completely ignored. So, I went in person to the school one day, and saw the bully touching my kid, my kid staring at the floor. Unbelievable. Great academics is not the only ingredient in a well-rounded school.
