School Reviews

The current second-third grade Cross Cat teacher KJ is a very bad influence on the children due to her neglect and abusive behavior towards Special Needs children. She has failed to perform her basic duties due to lack of teaching skills. I hope the management realizes her behavior towards her students/their parents sooner than later and makes a wise decision.
