I went to this school, and now my kids are attending here. I didnt like it then, and I still dont like it. This school is perfect if your a stay at home mom, or someone with lots of money to throw away (a rich yuppie). However, If you have some common sence, this school is a total JOKE! They are all about saving face on the schools reputation and not always about the students. My older son has been having learning issues since starting here, and instead of helping him, they have transfered him into 4 different classrooms, he spends all recess' and lunches in the office (instead of teaching him discipline they seclude him) and have asked me to get a phycological exam on him, because it couldnt possibly be the way hes being taught, ya...right!. I would enter into this school with caution if you have to. If you're like me, your stuck here due to where your house is located. When did schools loose sight of the education of our children???? Or maybe its just this school!

This school makes every child understand why learning is important and that every thing is based on your own merit. The children learn to work hard and learn to share with others
