"I have a special needs child and I feel the school does an excellent job! The teachers and staff are wonderful and they do a great job at helping the kids learn in different ways. They give discipline when needed and positive feedback too! Many teachers have been there for 20-25 years. Remember it takes good communication with the teachers to help your child succeed, you can't put the blame on teachers. I highly recommend this school."

"I went here and didn't like it at all. The classrooms were overcrowded and I would get in trouble for reading ahead in class... I wouldn't rate this low based solely on that. However 12 years later when my sister recently went here she had a lot going on and the school social workers took forever on addressing her concerns and gave her no support and then she was talking in class one day (which I know she should not have been doing) but the teachers punishment was to slap her on the mouth. She is homeschooled now. If your kid doesnt have to go here don't send them."

"To the parent who feels this school does not offer anything you could not be more wrong. This school has after school activities in sports, homework club, band, choir, art, plus after school club. Surrounding schools are not offering this. It's all in what you get invovled in. Teacher strive to get your child the help they need. Gavin has come a long way and offers many opportunities for the kids to explore themselves. Check it out more, get involved. Great school and awesome teachers."
