"My son was transferred this past January to this school because of the no child left behind act. When I was given this school as an option, I was impressed with the scores in the Reading and Math state wide tests. But when I got to the school, I experienced racial hostility. My son's teacher is an absolute gem; she is extremely dedicated and phenomenal. It's the main office staff I have a problem with. My son is extremely gifted and I found it degrading and demeaning for a school official to say that 'these children have to be taken since it's no child left behind.' I was very upset over the whole incident and numerous other incidents I have first-handledly witness at this school. Even though my son loves his teacher and class, I'm unsure of how to proceed this coming September."

"My children attended this school for one academic year. I found the school to be too big, too crowded and the teachers to be uncaring. Class size is too big for one teacher to be able to do his/her job well. That was just one of the problems. I spoke with one of the assistant principals, and the principal regarding my concerns and did come away feeling that my concerns were important. In the end, I decided to place my children in a different school and we are all much happier. I wish I had better things to say."
