  • I have been really disappointed with some of the teaching staff at this school. There are some really great teachers here but there are a lot of really bad ones that take away from the good ones. There is a real lack of leadership at this school. The teachers are not held accountable for poor behavior that they demonstrate. I also feel that this is a strict enviornment that focuses more on punishing children for poor behavior and never rewarding children for good behavior. Do not go to this school if you expect positive reinforcement for your child. There is a lot of opportunities for parent involvement which I really enjoyed. It is too bad that it is always the same parents that do everything though. The parents who do volunteer are truly dedicated. The next couple years are going to be very telling with the change in the principal for the 2010-2011 school year.
