The isn't all it's cracked up to be. It's very mid-managed and the school is very small. From my knowledge by a work of mouth form several students that left. The staff are stealing school funding and using it for this not related to the children. I removed my daughter due to she didn't feel safe in the schools environment anymore. I do not recommend anyone enrols his or her children here, please find another school.
