- Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on July 02, 2007
- Rating:
(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - So far the communication is totally lacking. My son is supposed to start first grade at this school in three weeks, however I still have not been told if he has been accepted (there is a wait to get in), who his teacher will be with opportunity to meet the teacher beforehand, where his classroom will be, school lunch information, school time information, which track he will be on, etc. Now the school is closed and the voicemail just says to leave a message without even identifying it as being a school or when they will be back in the office. There was confusion when registering him as well, but I put it off as being due to an emergency that was also happening at the time.
