I love this school ! I went here as well as a child! They put learning first and never stop at the grade level range for reading/writing lessons. My son says everyday he had a good day and his teacher Ms. Craig is AWESOME!

Love this school! My son's teachers have been wonderful and they do whatever it takes to help children.
