- This Is A Excellent School. All Of The Teachers Are Wonderful. The One Thing That Tops It All Is This Is A Very Safe School. The Principal Ms.Cheryl Gibbs Makes Her Students Top Priority In Safety. I Would Highly Recommend This School A++++
- Reviewed by a Staff Member on February 08, 2008
(Rating: 2 / 5) Report As Inappropriate - This principal does not do a good job of "leading by example" in that she is constantly yelling at the students (not to mention others of the staff). It doesn't seem to matter what they have done; any "offense" is treated like a severe criminal act. I have learned a lot from children over the years and being firm yet kind is usually the way that they will "open up". Many kids have problems at home that are manifested at school. It is the duty of the principal, teachers and any other staff to treat them with dignity even though punishment may be required, and to listen to them if they are willing to talk. We can help them to open up by being firm, yet caring. This sort of support, I have not witnessed at this school. Children behave due to terror. Now, that just isn't right...
