(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This is a great place for bullies. Kids are allowed to bully - and get away with it. If you want to keep your child's self esteem intact -don't go!
Leadership and staff are great at allowing bullying.
Several families I know -and their kids- love the education - but can't wait to get their kids out.
