I give this school an average rating. We haven't had much problems other than our kids having the usual problems with bullies or kids being kids and misbehaving. Honestly, I believe this has much to do with the little attention the kids get at home and bring these behaviors to school. The teachers have been good so far, my boys teacher in Kindergarten has been great. Our little girl's teacher seems to have anger issues with other teachers and shows this with the kids around. Maybe teachers should be reviewed more often. The staff I've delt with other than this one specific teacher have been great.
