"As a parent of a child with disabilities, my experience with this school was extremely disappointing. Legally required supports and accommodations were not consistently followed, and it often felt like the school cared more about maintaining its “A” rating than properly supporting students with disabilities. Communication throughout the year was poor, and I constantly had to ask for updates regarding grades, behavior, and progress instead of receiving proactive communication from staff. Safety was also a concern. My child reported that another student brought a weapon to school, and administration stated they would handle it internally. When asked about contacting authorities, the response was that the situation needed to meet a certain threshold first, which was alarming. In addition, one front office staff member was consistently rude to families and acted as though any questions or requests were an inconvenience. Families deserve better support, communication, and safety than what we experienced here."
