Absolutely excellent! I was worried about the low Great School's rating of this school, but we live across the street and decided to try it. Our daughter's experience has been fantastic. The kids are nice, the teachers are great, and their programs are exceptional. Most of the kids are poor aand Mexican, so the school gets more money and has more enrichment than any school I've ever seen. My son in kindergarten is coding and doing robotics. Our daughter is in band and computer programming. Both are in the 2 way bilingual program. This school is fantastic

I subbed for Mr. Kevin Smith and Mr. Dwyer. They were most supportive! Their classrooms were a total joy to sub for!

So glad next year Ms. Weinman will not be attending this school next year. My son had her last year and she was highly unprofessional and very rude to my child!! Maybe the school will improve without mean teachers like her. She is very impatient and always yelling at her students and should NOT be working with children if she does not enjoy her profession!!

My child has been in this school for the past 3 yrs. and I'm very disatisfied with the schools administrative staff in particular. My child has had bullyed and been injured on more than one occassion and the school staff failed to notify me, it wasn't till I picked up my child up from the afterschool program that I was told my son wasn't feeling well due to the earlier incident. On two other occassions an administrative staff member called me to spk. about an issue and hung up the phone on me twice because I was trying to get a version of the happenings. The principal and some of the teachers seems nice but not enough for me to recommend this school to anyone... I have really nothing good to say about this school except to not enroll your kids here...
