This school is experiencing a lot of reform. There are new programs designed to help the struggling readers, but there is too much pressure placed on the kids and teachers to have the students excell. There needs to be more positive feedback from administration. The school really needs to focus less on scores and more on actual education. Educate the child, not just pass the test.

This is a very troubled school. The teachers are too busy trying to learn new curriculum, that they don't have enough time for the students. There is too much attention placed on helping the disadvantadged children for the average to excel. There are several teachers who need to retire because they are too bored with teaching to bother working with the children. We ultimately pulled our children from this school after 3 years of our children falling behind in their academics.

I am really impressed with my kids school. The concern of the administration and teachers is wonderful. They make you and your children feel like family and parents are welcomed any time of the day. I feel Karen Robinson is the best admin. ever. Thank you for what you do for my kids.
