I'm very unhappy with this school. I wish the principal would use some common sense.
Communication between the office and parents is horrible. We are given almost no notice for awards ceremonies. The school took a bunch of kids to a pool with no lifeguard on duty, how do people that don't consider my childs safty plan to teach them anything . Most of these posts look like Admin posing as a parent to make themselves look better...pathetic.
I believe any school that has accomplished a gain of 118 API points on the CST's is a school of distinction. It shows an active administrator and staff.
This is a small school with small classes. As a result, the teachers spend more time with the kids. The result is seen in their cst scores.
The leadership and staff are amazing. API scores up in 2008 55pts, 2009 63 pts. Principal is active with students and works with parent daily.
My main concern with this school is the lack of leadership and presence displayed by the principal!
Awesome administrators and teachers. Great small town school with more personal attention for the students.
