- Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on December 06, 2009
- Rating:
(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This is the worst school I have ever dealt with in the district. They will throw your kids lunch away if caught talking in the cafeteria, the teachers have bad tempers, one of my daughters got yelled at and spit on and your child will be forced to attend school with violent, mentally children. Very horrible, hoping for a charter admission.
