To be real working with this school I feel every new child going to that school should be Evaluated starting from first grade. I didn't got a staight answer when asking them did they Evaluate my daughter Alexa Nunez. At this piont she dont know how to read or write and they said its the mom. But I feel by law the school has a responsibility to Evaluate the child before placing the child in a class room because she might need special Education.

This school lacks a lot of things. First of, teachers that care for their students in an academic way, my sister has been going in this school since pre-k, she is now in second grade. She has had the same curriculum since kindergarten. The things she is now doing in second grade are the same things as last year, there is no advance in the curriculum. Also, there is a problem with teachers and staff letting children go with anyone. They give out the blue card that is supposed to have a list of certain people who could pick the children up, I went to the main office and was able to pick up my sister without even being asked what relationship I had with the child. The teachers at recess time do not even pay attention who the children leave with or if there even is anyone there to pick them up. I understand that there might be a large amount of students to be watching one by one but at least make eye contact or a wave to whoever is picking up the children. One last thing, the homework's are way too easy for the children, they are asked not to do it in one night but they are packets that can be done in under 1 hour; there are reading sections for the homework and the teachers do not provide books and if they do they give the same books every other week.
