How do most children get to school everyday? (bus, train, walk, etc.)

Car and bus

How would you describe the facilities at this school? What extra-curricular activities are available?

The facilities are average but the school is in an apartment building consisting of three floors with a small basement play area. They do not have real extra-curricular activities only clubs. Which my child did not benefit from.

What has this school done to help your child transition from the curriculum in your home country into the curriculum in your new country? Are there programs to prepare your child for repatriation?

The school represents itself saying that it offers intervention services but my child does not receive them. False representation.

How would you describe the social activities available for parents through this school? Are there parent-teacher organizations?

There are no social activities for parents. The main activities are the occasional book fairs, and reporting times.

What advice would you give to someone considering enrolling their child in this school?

The principal is not American and never been a principal until this coming year 2004 - 2005. There are a lot of changes in schedule, some of the teacher have qualification whereas some are are not qualified to teach special needs. There are some classes were the assistant is the teacher. I was completely unsatisfied with the services and the quality of instruction. I would not recommend this school.
