There has been nothing short of horror stories in regards to the principle of this school. My family has shared these experiences along with multiple other families as she seems to feel it is her obligation and within her power to primarily handle student problem resolution without council or involvement from the school counselor and her methods have proven to be a "pit the students against each other until the majority picks one student that to take the blame. Then isolate that student and guide them through writing a narrative that has them admit that they are to blame." Many children, including my own have been seriously perturbed by these methods. I even know of a family that demanded she not handle their child in this manner, then had to go to the school board when she didn't adhere to their request.Also, aside from the principle, students have had nothing but horrific stories regarding teacher aids. From being disciplined for walking on the grass during recess, to being micromanaged to the point where they can't get up to throw away their lunch without consent.

My son went to this school and I am very pleased with the progress he made. As a measure, his scores in the national OLSAT given to 3rd graders places him in 98 percentile nationally on reading and math - this he accomplished without any additional support at home. The point is, the school rating don’t mean much when you as parent are providing the emotional support and encouragement at home.

This is my daughters first year and so far we love the school. The teachers seem very nice and passive. My daughter loves there Spanish class on Monday's and there music class. So far we are happy with the school. The school does need, more after school events.
