"My son has attended this school for 2 years. Being a parent and having open communication with the teachers and administrative staff are very important to me. I get none of that from the teachers. My son was doing poorly in school without my knowledge until the progress reports came home. I contacted the teachers via email and voicemails and had no response. The ones that would respond would email a couple weeks after I had sent mine with follow up emails. I have left messages for the attendance staff and principal through phone and email with no response. In my eyes the staff at this school is very lazy and clearly does not care about the education of their students. If you are a parent about to enroll your child, I would search for other options."

"I know that lots of people say this is a great school but frankly its not. Ive been here three years and im about to leave for high school. This school wasnt that bad but its not great either. Since the zoo is right next to the school whenever you go run in PE you can smell all the animals... its not a nice smell. Anyway also some teachers here can not relate to you at all. Its like they dont even care. Sure the classes are small but what good is it if the teacher doesnt even try. Overall a good school but not the best..."

"I erolled my daughter to this school although it's 6 miles away from our house based on good reviews and recommendations of teachers and principal. It's worth the trip, my daughter is excelling academically due to good teachers and very low student-teacher ratio. Less than 20 students per teacher. In one of her class, there's only 13 kids. Their after school program is really good and free."

"I sent my child to this school based on all th great things i heard about the staff and the principal in particular. Unfortunately she is no longer there. New principal seems lost and ineffective. Many new teachers who seem overwhelmed and unable to understand middleschoolers. PTO meetings are not highly attended. Some of the staff members are great but there are a few bad apples that make me wish I had choiced my child out oif this school."
