"WORST school ever! The office receptionist is overly rude and always on her cell phone, the teachers do not work with the parents, and the office staff simply does not care. If you are a working parent, don't bother trying to get involved - they cater their programs and meetings around the teachers and staff. The bullying policy is a joke - they teach your children to become whiny tattletales and then they don't even do anything to alleviate the situation, and your child is the one that gets punished for defending him or herself. So many parents have removed their children from this "charter school" this year (2018-2019)! The teachers do not teach, and when homework is sent home it is not age appropriate. It's a glorified daycare, and the employees don't want to deal with your child. The school is not fair and they discriminate and label children. Save yourself the trouble and heartache, and find a different school for your child!"

"Great philosophy- horrible implementation. We had so much hope they would get it figured out, but it was awful. My kids said it was fun, but both complained that they weren't learning anything. Communication is key with this type of model, and the school did not communicate well on the most important topics. My kids got behind, but fortunately we left and got them caught up. MANY other parents pulled their kids in a mass exodus after seeing the school's failure to implement. Such a disappointment!"
