Alpac is a great school! We struggled at another school in the district to have our son's special needs met with no avail. Alpac actually came to us first within a few weeks of our son's attendance. He now has an IEP in place and is doing wonderfully. The music, library and P.E. programs are top notch. The teachers are caring and involved. The PTA is getting much stronger.
The extra attention my son has gotten in order to catch him up with the other children his age has been nothing but excellent. Most of the teachers truely have your childs best interests at heart. I do agree the lack of socialization during lunch is a problem and have experienced the problems it causes first hand. I do believe that children should be able to be social during lunch and recess. Beyond that the activities and learning are far better then most schools I have seen offer. I would recommend this school for your childs learning.
This school is the best I've seen. The teachers are top notch. The principal is awesome. I've noticed she knows most of the kids by first name. The programs available are awesome. The parent involvement isn't the greatest. The meals served are beautiful and nutritious. The extra programs (library, music & gym) are great programs! I'm so HAPPY to be a part of this school!
The school and teachers seem to be over strict, with no lunch room socialization during lunch, a normal break in the day, the children are forced to be extremely quite and do no talking during this time. Focus on Math skills is put on back burners for students in grades lower than 3rd, so a big shock is laid out for students that do not do well in Math when they enter 3rd grade. And there is so much wasted time during class, with breakfast being served, not before school starts at 8:30am but just as school starts giving students time to eat during the beginning of class, wasting the time of other students ready to learn at 9am. The school has some quality teachers, but time is not used to provide an optimal learning experience.
