Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I do not give it a great rating my child deals with bullies and other disruptions as well in his class setting!!! It can improve on a better social situation.
So far so good, my son is in PreK 3 and he loves his teacher, and he comes out of school happy. And tells me about what he did in class. This the beginning for me at this school, I will update as I go along.
I am graduating SCS this summer and I must comment on how appalling the entire system is! it is shocking that I made graduation without giving up! I personally found the teaching the worst of all! With the exception of about four teachers, the rest do not seem as determined,focused, and/or dedicated on teaching and reaching out to the students to improve their knowledge. I also find the new principal quite irritating! I thought she would improve the school, not destroy its former reputation of being 'the #1 school on SI'.Parents of future SCS students/graduates, I wish you luck!
We couldn't be happier. Great school with wonderful, caring teachers. Very academically challenging.
Good teachers for the most part. However, much work to be done at home. School bags are way, way too heavy for the students. All the textbooks should not be coming home every night. This is a major problem.
This is an excellent scchool with excellent teachers that give their all which is alot. My child went on to great things after graduating and my youngest child is doing well there also.
For the most part, caring teachers and wonderful leadership with Ms. Bushman. Lots of parental involvement and extracurricular activities.
New Principal will hopefully modernize the academics more. Offering a language would be nice. Children are in PreK and Kindergarten and happy so far.
Academics are mediocre. The science art and music programs are few and far between. Parents are encouraged to be involved
This school is horrible. My child said that the teachers did not even try to help him understand what they were learning.
