I have to give this school a low rating based on the faculty not contacting or keeping parents informed of what is going on. They are disrespectful to parents and some children. As in most places it is who you are or rather who your parents are in this school system!

I give this school a low rating because of the faculty. I have NEVER heard adults yell and lose control as much as these people do. Maybe they should find another line of work.
