Overall it was good. but not great. I hope there have been improvements made since my children have been there. The now common core Math have given disappointing test results compared to my older child. Some upper grade teachers have emphasized Writing and/or Science at the cost of Math instruction.
New principal changed the school office, now they are nice and warm heart!
The class education teaches kids well. The administration interacts with parents poorly.
So many issues with this school. From the indifferent staff and principal, to the complete lack of security or caring for your child's safety (mine was left alone to wait for me after school on her own in the parking lot), the 3 story staircase that all the little ones have to walk up every morning (God forbid one of them fall down and domino all the others). I would like think the teachers are caring. Unfortunately, my child did not get one of those. Please consider a different school for your child. I left an honest review on Greatschools and it was deleted. Nothing defamatory in it, and did not name names. Are you going to delete this one too, GS???
