This school is amazing! A hidden gem in the neighborhood; excellent teachers and administration who genuinely care about their students.

This is the worst school my kids have ever gone to. They do not get help even when they ask or I would ask for extra help. No one is ever available to talk or even give a courtesy call when something happens.

If you Care about your child being in an environment that is conducive to learning this is NOT the school to go to.
5 11/11/2011
This is the only school I have ever seen that does not have one single crosswalk. Kids have to dodge traffic to get to the only side of the street with a sidewalk. Is the safety of our children no longer a priority?
