School Reviews

We were quite pleased with this school up until approximately two years ago when an amazing vice principal was transferred out and replaced by a pretentious new VP that dresses as though she is going out to party. She is completely unapproachable, acting as though she can't be bothered by something as frivolous as a parental concern. I can't imagine what the staff has to endure considering how she behaves towards parents and students. We miss the old VP.
