My son went for kindergarten, most of the year was virtual. Since going back full time the past few months he has really thrived and improved his writing and reading skills. For being in the infamous Clark county, it’s not bad at all. Every staff member I’ve met is really kind and cares about the kids.

This is the worst school in Clark county! The teachers put there hands on children which should never happen. The bullying is out of control. My son has been getting bullied on a regular basis I have brought it to the principals attention and nothing has been done. They take the bullies side and make it like it's the victims fault. Please keep your children away from this school

My son has been getting bullied these last 2 weeks I have talked to the principle on multiple occasions and he says he's gonna take care of it. The next day I pick my son up something new has happened son back to the principle I go. There is no saftery for our children you can walk in the office and say you need to go give you child something and they don't ask for I.D like every other school does to make sure you have a kid in the school they just let you walk in... I don't feel safe sending my son to this school

Good school, not sure why people are rating this school so poorly. Our child has had a great experience here, her teacher Ms. Gardner is spectacular. Well run, well organized, positive environment.

Worst school ever!! They think it is okay for teachers and staff to be physical with students. They disrespect parents and children! Stay away. I pulled my 3rd grader out immediately!
