"I used to go to this school for middle school. I liked it in my 6th grade year. Only 6th grade. The teachers are so petty nowadays and my brother attends this school. It’s progressively gotten worse, my brother can get bullied and yell at them to stop and HE gets in trouble. In my point of view this is not a good school. So much work to do in such little time everyday"

"Ms. Lopez was very unprofessional today. My daughter went to pick up her siblings today. She is on the paperwork to pick them up. She has picked them up several times. During dismissal, they allowed my 6 yo to get in the car, but when my 10 yo starts walking to get in the car, Ms Lopez stops him and decides to be petty by placing her hand on his shoulder preventing him from getting in the car. She and two other staff members surrounds my daughter's car asking her the same questions over and over. My daughter got upset because she didn't understand why the school staff were behaving like children and because she sat there for an extra 15 minutes. It is unacceptable that Ms. Lopez put her hand on my child. Plus my 6 yo is already in the car so why did Ms Lopez stop my 10 yo from getting in the car? Some of the teachers and office staff are so petty and obviously miserable. This type of behavior needs to stop. They need to grow up and act their age. Smh."

"My child attended there this year for kindergarten. When I did my research on this school not much came up in reviews. I will say this is a good school, but they are very academic based. Meaning theres homework packets for the week plus having 90 minutes on istation for reading, math and spanish on top. For my son it was just to much. They also do not know how to handle my kid who has anxiety. He had a rough time after Christmas break with school refusal. He wouldn't go in at all by himself and a few times some of the staff would be forcing him into the school. So finally Mrs. Ninesling took an interest in my son and helped him get to class every morning. If it wasnt for her I dont think we would have made it through the school year. Again not a bad school as long as your up for the workload that is brought home. I only give it a 2 because everyone needs to understand that some kids have anxiety and school refusal. They just need a refresher on how to handle kids with anxiety."

"The school is terrible this is from the students point of veiw. This school year we haven't even held a proper teacher in the learning experience is terrible most of the time it's not even the kids it's the teachers. And there's quite a lot of fights and it gets other kids in trouble. We had to have a scheduled lunch and it was very strict by the time they called my table which wasn't even the last one we only had 10 minutes to eat which isnt a lot. At the beginning of the school year I was very excited to go to the school but now I am begging my parents to take me to a different school. I wish I could give the school a zero star rating. There's only three that I can think of good teacher in the middle school."
