- Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on February 22, 2007

(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have my 8yr. old son in this school and the teachers that he has had has been horrible, this school is a nightmare, there's kids with behavioral issues that are using scissors to try to cut my son and picking with my son, because of there behavorial disabilities, that shouldn't be in the same class as the regular kids. How can kids learn if they have kids that should be in a alternative class so that other students aren't being interrupted? There is no structure for the 3rd graders to be able to learn appropriately. This school is not what I expected it to be at all, and I am going to do whatever it takes to make sure no other parents go through what myself and my spouse has went through with our child.
