  • I honestly don't recommend this school, the assistant principal has a bad attitude with the students as well with parents, and permit bulling at school with the Hispanic race, the principal accepts whatever she says, it has a very bad organization there and for that and other reasons, I don't recommend this school at all.

  • the appearance of this school is one thing but the reality is another. the teachers as well as the principal permit and accept that some students in particular keep bad habit of conduct at school with other students. aggravation and inappropriate conduct at school with the aproviations of some teacher, that made me to remove my child last year from this school,and that's the specific reason because i dont recommend this school school.
