From my time being at this school I enjoyed it very much, my teachers were very friendly and helpful. I can say all of them care and offer as much help as needed. I can say some, but not all, teachers explain work very thoroughly and make learning interesting. But I think that school work is quite lenient. I can see the school has slightly declined in quality. It is a very nice school but the teaching curriculum is very different from when I was in the lower grades. I do have siblings that I see have trouble and are not learning the things I did. They learn things fairly slowly and in a very unnecessary way, they were not taught the easy and efficient way. The staff is really nice, as well as the school, but it is fairly easy and not as challenging. It is up to the students to push themselves, asking for extra work/classes otherwise most of the time it is not asked of.
I have two kids studying in this school. The teachers are excellent and facilities are too quality. Both of my kids like the school very much and their teachers as well. So far, there is no racial discrimination and bullying happens. And the teachers are very strict both academic and conduct monitoring. And the teachers give out decent homework to the kids except no homework on weekends which is a kind of miss. And there are whole lot of after school programs to pick for extra after school activities which is fun and helpful for the students.
My daughter goes to this school in Kindergarten. I will say that the school is doing good in diversity. I see a equal amount of white, Asians, black and Hispanics this year. Administration is friendly and are always ready to listen what parents has to say, the teachers are good, and the school has a great facilities. The only complaint I have is that despite of having a great play area outside, my daughter class is not allowed to play in the yard even in a good weather. I hope they understand that the kindergarten Kids age range from only five to six and therefore they need to play outside so they can socialize with each other .
