(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - Parents beware! I had two children that went to this school and both of them had to be hospitalized because the lack of supervision. The principal is the FAKEST person I know. She could give some politicians a run for their money. She will twist everything you say to make herself look good and doesn’t give a damn about your kids or her staff. She’d rather point fingers everywhere else than take responsibility for her shortcomings. This woman does not deserve the title “Principal of the Year”!
