School Reviews

3   5/5/2023
The teachers are sharp and very attentive. Communication occurs with parents to alert them of concerns. Post-pandemic policy inhibits accessing the school except for designated events. The school strives to be supported socio-emotional development. As a new school with institutional support for innovative approaches to learning- addressing future leaders with language encouraging excellence- the challenge has been the motivation of the individual student to understand and respect his potential. The school reaches toward the community to be engaged. It is not an easy lift but progress increases every year.
