School Reviews

5   10/13/2008
Five Points is a great school that gives our children many opportunities in academic and extracurricular activities. Five Points has a small child to teacher ratio and the children benefit from more individualized attention. The parents, teachers and staff are a close knit team that work together to push each child to their full potential. My children and I both attended Five Points Elementary and I would highly recommend this school. It is without a doubt an "A" school in all aspects.
