(2 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Its a good thing my daughtor is extremely smart as her teacher is lacking. He spends more time "en espanol" making jokes and reading tests to children that can't read in english, *(which is illegal classes are to be taught in english when the spanish starts it should be stopped by the teacher) then teaching. Principal fluffs everything and doesn't seem to care as much as she vocalizes. When I take my over acheiver out and there test scores (the thing she does care about) drops a little more, will she care then? Gave a two because IF you can get into Mrs. Stephens Kinder class your child will receive one heck of a foundation. But don't continue from there. Mr Jones kinda a jerk, mrs trippany gone more often then weekly, mrs sonic one step away from cumbaiya session, mr cortez is a moron, mrs Kenzy, needs prozac and severe mental counseling teaches class as a 10 step program mr brown awesome so 2 outta 6 great otherwise try somewhere else.
