Excellent bang for your buck school that provides high quantity educational excellence. The Principal is very engaging, truthful and transparent with the parents/guardians. The teachers and staff are all well qualified for their respective positions. The culture amongst the other parents/guardians feels warm and inviting.

My daughter attended preschool here and the teacher was pretty good. When it came time to register my son I was blown away. Several parents gathered in courtyard to get registration papers on a saturday. A lady from office came out and made a 5 minute announcement to parents in spanish. When she was done many of the parents started talking amongst themselves. When I realised the lady had no more to say I yelled out "Can you say that in English for those of us that don't speak spanish." Can't remember what she said but what took her 5 minutes to say in spanish uninterrupted translated in english took 15 seconds. One of the parents seeing how wrong it was came over to me and spent the time to explain what she said. By that time my mind was made up that my child wouldn't attend that school. I guess that Amestoy rep got her wish.

The principal is ok but does not interact enough with the students or parents, the school is filthy food and trash all over the place and the bathrooms are very dirty my son reported to me several times that their was feces and pee all over the floor..Also the front secretaries especially the lady that sits in the corner next to the principal's office is very rude and have horrible attitudes and when you ask them a question they act like its bothering them..think again before you send your kid to this school....
