Worst experience ever. Things started out great for the first month and a half. Then the bullying began. It started with and older girl on the bus than after 2 separate complaints to the school that was finally resolved. But it didn't stop. There was someone else to take her place and take it to the classroom as well. From October until...we are now in April it hasn't stopped. Multiple phone calls. No real action has been done. And this child is not the only one. Just the tip of the iceberg.And as far as children with disabilities goes... when you request the help they need not only do they lie in their reporting but they tell you to go get help somewhere else because they don't want to have to pay for it. They couldn't care less about the children in that school. It's pathetic. And when you decide you want to use your right to homeschool your child and do exactly as THEY told you to do and get help else where they want to harass you at your home. I'd never in a million years recommend this school to anyone. EVER.

Im proud of high Education , integrity, safety that Vets provide for the students. IF, the parents really would be involved with daily life of their kids, Im sure that we could reach 10/10. I GOT it. Thankfully for be Vets.

My child has been in this school for the last 2 years, His teachers have been wonderful. They stay after school and help students that need it. My only problem with this school is with the principal. She has done nothing but bully my son since day one. I know my son is no angel but her disciplinary actions are horrifying. She wrongfully accused my son of something he did not do and no authority figures had witnessed. She gave him 2 days of afterschool detention. HE IS 8 YEARS OLD! Once he was sent back to the class, the situation was resolved but she insisted the punishment stand because it was her school and her rules. She called me to discuss the matter and was extremely rude to me on the phone. When I requested a face to face meeting with her and the teacher she told me to set it up with the teacher. She finally agreed to the meeting and then didn't even have the nerve to show up. She sent the vice principal to take notes in her place. Very unprofessional as far as I am concerned. This was only one of many incidences in a 1 1/2 years. I want to go to the school board but my husband fears reciprocity. Unfortunately my son has 2 yrs. left with this witch.
