Rating: (1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate
This school is a joke. I would rather drink anti-freeze than to send another one of my children to this school. Office staff is very rude and unprofessional. Teachers are there for one reason and it's not to educate the children, $$$$$ need I say more? The only positive thing I can say about this school is if you absolutely HATE your child this would be a great school to send him/her to.
