  The staff at this school is extremely rude. I've witnessed them snapping at students, putting fingers in their faces, speaking to students rudely and being disrespectful to parents and their regards to their children. I have two children with special needs one is ADHD to whom they refuse to work with one on one and my other child who has a lisp. They also refuse to give her speech therapy without a second opinion because, "she is too smart for speech" yet failed a hearing exam. This school has what they call a quiet lunch for 15min of a 30min lunch, the students are not allowed to speak. They have quite lights on the bus as well as a no talking rule in the halls and class rooms. So when exactly are these kids allowed to socialize??? Being a transfer student from Texas I could not believe how far behind these students are, my child is in second grade and still learning how many sides a shape has.... She has jumped back into first grade and kinder material. Absolutely ridiculous. The students are not required to have spelling test on their vocabulary words, they must only know how to use the word correctly in a sentence. This school is a joke and the staff is not willing to put forth the effort to challenge these students. I should have took the other bad reviews seriously before giving this school an opportunity. The staff should be embarrassed by their lack of attentiveness and patience for these students. If you have any other options steer away from this school. They only got 1 star because I couldn't put nothing. Do not recommend them to anyone.
