Princeton Elementary is awful I recommend you don't go there. The food tastes like paper, not only that but the teachers barely pay attention to you, and from what I heard the buses are only for the blind students??? WHAT SCHOOL Doesn't HAVE BUSES? Please don't go there it's a NIGHTMARE. My child was locked in the classroom, the students didn't even pay attention to her nor the teacher. Where was the door holder at? la la land? She had to push open the door herself and run after her class. The other students acted like nothing happened. Please don't go to this school! Thank you :)
