"This school is great to prepare your child for prison. It has bars on all the winows, a fenced yard (no grass or greenery), and uniformed guards. mixed experience with teachers and staff...some good/some bad but neither to the extremes of truely great or truely horrible"

"I love our school because the teachers and administration are terrific at reinforcing the students natural inclination to learn in everything they do! They do not just teach to pass standardized tests - although this seems to be a natural by product."

"My twin girls have gone to 321 since kindergarten, and are currently in 3rd grade. They have had so much fun learning there. Their teachers have been great! Nice community of parents, too."

"We have had a very mixed experience at this school. Both with great teachers and outright difficult ones. Due to the hands off approach of allowing the teachers to run their class, little is done if you get a bad-apple for the year. This is unfortunate. There are a lot of children....the numbers alone make it difficult to get attention. Overcrowding is an issue. Kindness, respect and manners are often ignored to maintain order of the sheer numbers of children. Kids can feel this and become lost in the shuffle. Parental involvement is high.... this has a definite positive advantage for the school but then has a huge down-side when it crosses lines into socialization. Politically correct play-dates and over-parenting are by-products of some with to much time on their hands. Overall the school does very well with reading and writing. The teachers that are great do an exceptional job and should be commended."
