Poor parent and teacher communication. Very small library and small selection of books. Poor quality of food they serve. Teachers, uses their cellphones during working hours. Very expensive school. I am not sure if all the teachers are license teachers. Public school teachers has to meet the license requirement by the state.

It's so nice to have a school that isn't just worried about test scores. The teachers are actually able to teach the students instead of teaching them how to take tests. The teacher/pupil ratio is small and the teachers and staff are very involved and I feel my children are being challenged in all subjects. They even have art, music, Spanish and computer which a lot of schools no longer have anymore.

This school is a year behind public school you would think after paying so much they would be ahead of the public schools. I would never go back to this school even if they paid me.

The teachers are great. Wonderful environment. The staff really cares for each child. Spanish in kindergarten. One thing I appreciate is how the staff goes out of their way to make the kids have fun and learn. It amazes me the special things that they do for the kids (my daughter will come home and say mommy gues what...An indian ame to lunch today). Outstanding school

Community ratings and reviews do not represent the views of GreatSchools nor does GreatSchools check their accuracy or verify the reviewers' identities. Use your discretion when evaluating these reviews.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
