Very high. My children excelled as they are making their way through high school and college. They were taught the ways to keep organized for doing their best. Both children are in honors.

The teacher quality varies a lot here-one year you got a really caring teacher, and another year one that does not care at all. Overall though they are still pretty good. The staff and principal are not very friendly and easily accessible, especially, Mrs. D'Alto, who is always complaining and bashing about some parents whenever I walk in the school office. Just a lot of negative energy in that room.

My son went to school here. There was bullying going on in as early as 1st grade. I was surprised that the teachers did not pay any attention to it and inform any parents. When I discussed with the teacher, she said she had no idea. Good strategy to pretend no knowledge ..wow. We were relocating to another state so didn t have time to take it up with the principal. From what I had heard from other parents, the principal takes no feedback and mostly believes they are doing the best (read this as: we are a great school, everything we do is right and you parents have no experience, just leave it to us, and yeah we have no room for improvement). It s probably a cultural thing passed on from the boss.
