School Reviews
2 9/1/2010
This school has been on a failing track for years now, the current economic issues make it worse than ever. There are almost no after school programs at all, the sports program that remains (2 teams) was almost cut this year. The administrator is awful, completely blind to their shortcomings and accepts no responsibility for their failings. This past year saw a teacher hurt a student and a kindergartener was able to leave school grounds from his classroom & made it 3 blocks to the post office w/o being noticed. Admin. never told the mother, she found out on her own after the fact. The Music program is one of the worst I've witnessed, but their Gym teacher is the salvation of the kids' days.
If I could do it again, we would never have moved here. The Board is completely inadequate/unwilling to deal with any of it.
