Really upset and annoyed with this school and its communication methods. They lack it. My son has not had a teacher since the beginning of the school year, they are in between teachers and it affects his grades entirely. The staff are rude and disrespectful. There are a select few whom are nice and caring towards your kids. However, there are others who are disrespectful every single day to parents and students! Specifically Jennifer Cascio. The way she talks to parents and students is uncalled for and is a daily occurrence. I’ve witness multiple situations with her. One being, her getting in a 5 year olds face pointing fingers in his face and yelling at him. She then proceeded to slam a door in his face because he did not answer her correctly. She is not professional and should not be around students. She cares more about how you park and pick up your children than caring for their well being. She likes to gossip with other teachers in the pickup line and walk into classrooms making comments about the children’s parents. She is what gives this school a bad reputation. My advice is to keep your children away from her. She is not a nice human being and should definitely not be working around children.

Terrible. Principal and Asst Principal do not need to be in charge of a school at all. They lack everything you need to be in that position

I simply, regretwish the school had better measures of teaching children with ADHD. My son is accepted if he's on medicine which my sons father and I has been on the ropes about giving to a 6 year old for fear of future effects as it made him angry or sad when the medicine wore off. And yes we have expressed our concerns to both principal and teacher. Nearly a year has gone by and NO new or entitled if you will source of education for my needy child. I have sent last my position with my company and M making a decision whether it would be best to homeschool him. Please feel free to leave any new rating on the newest Area Public School as I've noticed in the last two years there have been none good or bad. this should have happened sooner

I love this school. Last year I had two children attending this school for the first time. My oldest son in 3rd grade and middle son in Kindergarten. I am very pleased with the communication from the teachers and the encouragement both boys received. I now have all four of my children and my niece in this school and I could not ask for anything more. My only hope is that when I move out of state that I can find a comparable school.
