School Reviews

Things have changed quite a bit. I do not feel that the education offered at this school is adequate. My experience has not been good at all. Both teachers and principals are disconnected from the classroom. Education and instructional quality is subpar, and the school continues to follow the mantra of not giving any homework. This is detrimental to the students because there are not many ways to actually reinforced what was learned.

Our family has thoroughly enjoyed our experience at Sigler. We moved here in '02 and our children have had a high quality education. The teachers are excellent. The administration is wonderful, with an open door policy. I would recommend this learning environment to anyone.
