- The school in itself is great. The teachers are great. The illegals are not, the getting schoolwork, letters from the school, and having to ask for ENGISH things is NOT right.

- This school is great! They put the children first and encourage parents in school involvement. It is very diversified and a joy to have my child in. They do not discriminate between income or race and treat every child the same.

(Rating: 5 / 5) Report As Inappropriate - my child was recently transfered to this school, and from the beginning I had problems with them, first they told me that my son cannot get a ride on the bus because that is for "retarded kids" that's exactly the words they used. even tho I explain to them that I dont have a car and I live almost 2 miles away from the school. oh well...2nd. I received a call from the social worker saying that I abused my child, thing that is a lie, and I told her that she is more than welcome to come to house and check on us... there are kids out there that are being physically and verbally abused and the srs dont seem to do a thing about it if not you wouldnt hear those horrible stories on the news about parents killing they own children. and third I received a letter from the school today saying that my child is being enrolled in the ESOL program. which I dont agree since he is fluent in English...besides the fact that I am hispanic my child dont speak a word of English, so how in the world did they come to the conclusion that he needed such classes? just because he is hispanic? that to me is racial profiling....I am very upset towards this school.....
