School Reviews

2   4/29/2022
I have recently relocated our family due to a job change, but am extremely sad to see my kids leave this school district. The staff members of this school have been amazing influences on my children's upbringing over the past 7 years, and have undoubtedly served a big role in the kind and generous nature of my kid's hearts. Facilities are well maintained and managed, as well as the concerns of parents and children alike. I couldn't have asked for a better school district to have served my family for the first portion of their lives.
