My son is now a 2nd grade AI (autism impaired) student (there since kindergarten) and our experience has been wonderful. He's improved in every area. The teachers are often firm but very much care for the students. The classroom aids have always gone above and beyond. I've had no trouble advocating for my son or any issues with upholding his IEP. If there has ever been an issue where my son is hurt or injured I always receive a call letting me know what happened and how it was handled. As a parent I have been able to go into the school and volunteer. I've seen the teachers and staff in action. They genuinely care for the kids. The PTA always is very involved and constantly doing things for children.

They need to shut this school down! My sweet affectionate special education Kindergarten 5 year old has been traumatized by this school. After ONE MONTH at this school, he won't let me hug him anymore. He pushes me away. Told me the teacher told him to go spit on your mommy. He is verbally challenged and has never said that before and doesn't spit on anyone. She never respected his gluten free diet that was due to him having Celiac disease. She gave him gluten whenever it was available and it made my son sick. She would agree to a request and do the opposite. I stopped by to give my son his lunch and happened to see a kid scream in my son's face while the other one pushed him down. My son ran and cried in a corner. The teacher told the boys "Don't do that." And then yelled at my son to stop crying. I happened to be there so I comforted my son and made sure to withdraw him from school. Nothing is worse than sending your kid here to this school. It is abuse all week long for them and they will be broken by it and change for the worse. My son is now a shell of the boy he used to be. He has been out of school for two weeks and is still quiet and pushes me and his dad away when we have tried to hug him. I wish I would have never had him go here. No one in the administration office cared either. I'm Homeschooling from now on.

Horrid school. Principal is a but job! Teachers are lazy and very aggressive forwards students. Bullying of your children is allowed.

The school doesn't meet my expectations. I don't think the teachers care and there is tension in the place between the groups
