Its a good school, with an EXCELLENT principal and a dedicated group of teachers
This school has really excelled since the change in administration a few years ago. THe semi-new principal, Dr. McGinnis, is awesome. You couldnt get better. She's been there for about 4 or 5 years and she has brought the school so far. I value her leadership.
I read the reviews and I wonder how often the parents who wrote the negative reviews are ever at the school. This school could really thrive with parental involvement. The teachers really seem to care and the principal does as well. Yes, this is a working community but it's okay if grandparents volunteer if Mom or Dad can't! But, I would definitely like to see more extracurricular activities for the children.
I think that the quality of education and quality of teachers fall far below the bare minimum that any parent should require or ask for. Physical education is minimum to say it nicely. Parent involvement is not up like it could be but, these are working homes and I think more effort needs to put forth on both teacher and parent involvement.
I think that this school is average at its best. The quality of teachers are at the lowest and it is a shame that teaching is at the lower end of the spectrum when it comes to the education of our children.
