Yes, like any other 'public' school CLA has its issues. The school is amazing based on your child's need.

The school has an outstanding staff and has doubled in size in recent years due to positive word of mouth and active parent involvement. The staff actively strives for creative interactive learning based on inciting their natural drives. I would highly recommend it to others.
