My rating of this school is very low because of the leadership. The administration is the worst anywhere and the principal is one of the worst leaders I have ever come across she doesn't care for anyone but herself. If you question or cross her in the wrong way she will hate you for no reason.

This is in response to the parent's review. I am of the teaching profession, and I am sorry this happened to you. I wish you would have insisted on your child switching classes. ( i will be sharing secrets now) english only classes means the majority of students in the class have english as their first language. The " other" class only means that students started with another language as their primary language . It does not mean necessarily that these second group of students do not perform as well , usually just as well, as the "english only" class. In addition, the teaching in these " other" classes requires more hands on/ more use of complimentary resources. In other words, good teaching practices. I hope this helps erase taboos about english support classes vs. English only classes. (forgive my editing, as it is difficult typing by phone :))
