(1 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I 100% agree with the previous comment. The school is ridden with nepotism, with little concern for the children. Money that should be spent for services for the children is wasted. Aside from a few good teachers, the school is a complete chaotic mess. The administration is a joke. This school should be closed!
