We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

My kids are so happy here. New principals are such a breath of fresh air, and the much-needed new playground is absolutely amazing.

Terrible. We hate it. Our kids hate it. The assistant principal is nice but what can he do when the principal is mean and doesn't ever email or call back. She acts all smiley but seems cold. At ohara There are mean girl cliques, burned out teachers, nasty boys who never get in trouble. It is just a sad place. The old principal was the best. All the families we know are miserable. Nobody cares about parent input in the district either. Terrible.
