Very disappointed in this school. It's very costly in comparison to our private school in Texas. And once you get in, they continue to ask for more money from your family constantly. And I do mean CONSTANTLY.

The facilities are quite dated. Teachers rooms are a cluttered mess while much money goes into upkeep of principal's, headmaster offices. Parents are expected to supply all the supplies - none of the school payment goes toward supplies. This includes supplies for the art and music classes. Both went without pencils for the students last year as well as basic art supplies!! And on top of parents being expected to supply these things we were not told till the last three weeks of school.

There is no gratitude from the staff for sending your children here.you and you student are told regularly that it is your privilege to attend, you must be grateful to be here and so on... My children were outstanding in academics and character...but still the attitude of the staff is one of "bow before me. We are better than you."

****My biracial child was bullied by the other students, fifth through eighth grade students who definitely knew better. My child was referred to as being adopted and when talking about our family members,fellow classmates would say to my child "they're not really your family by blood." Never addressed by any staff or corrected.****

You will be told how wonderful their academics are. However with all the curriculum I've personally worked with and with the education of our previous school, it fails in standard!! They believe their own lies and build up their own text books, failing to see that it falls behind what is expected for the financial investment you are making. As well as failing to look into other private schools and see that their curriculum is excelling.

On top of this, and much much more I could go on, it is in a very risky neighborhood with high crime and drug gangs. Students are exposed to hearing gun shots, seeing meth addicts walk by them at recess, even went into school lock down for mass violent attack directly across the street from the school.
