This is not a great school! The teachers are overworked and have to teach every single subject. I don't believe that the principal is a great one. We will have to see what happens this year. I do not recommend this school.
I have four kids that go to this school and we came from two previous schools where to this day is falling apart, due to the school being run as a private business. What a lot of people don t know about Charter schools is that the principal can run the school as their own private business. The good thing about Promise is that all the teachers are extremely united and choose together as one what is best for the students. This past year we went through some changes with the Principal due to choosing the perfect person for the job. This year we have started off with a great person Never have I gone to a school, even a private one where every single teacher knows just about every child by their first and last name, I m talking about the entire school. It s like taking your children to their grandparent s house, everyone from the Prime Time program, teachers, office clerks, principal, vice-principal and even Javier the janitor know who your child is. That s called dedication to your child s education and well being!
I love this school!! I have four kids that go here and they are doing great! The teachers are awesome!! They care about the children and not what number they are. This school is like family. There are never any problems.
I really think that this school is a great school because it has great teachers that not only teach our children but also care about them. I have seen first hand how they interact with our kids and it is amazing the response that they get from our children. Our children love going to school....even if my son is sick and doesn't feel good he wants to go to school! That is a great feeling- to know he looks forward to school every morning!
My daughters went last year to this school. I had one in Kindergarten and one in 5th grade. Very low expectations, they do not have enough books. The classrooms were not so organized. The teachers had different expectations for students.
It seems like there is teacher collaboration, but teachers are not united. There is lots of miscommunication.
I really like this school, My doughter is in 1st grade and teachers take very good care of them they make them improve a lot.
Teachers and students work together in a fun and rigorous academic environment.
