I WOULD STRONGLY RECCOMEND THIS SCHOOL. THE TEACHERS AND STAFF ARE VERY ATTENTIVE AND REALLY CARE ABOUT THE CHILDREN. THEY ARE RESPONSIVE AND PROVIDE AN IMPRESSIVE AMOUNT OF DEDICATION TO THEIR JOBS. THIS SCHOOL IS THE FIRST I HAVE SEEN WITH A DISTINGISHED GROUP OF TEACHERS AND FACULTY. YOU CAN SEE THE PRIDE IN EACH TEACHER AS THEY HELP THE STUDENTS PREPARE FOR SUCCESS. I LIKE THE COMFORT THE CHILDREN FEEL AS IF IN THEIR OWN LIVING ROOM ON THE FLOOR WHILE LEARNING IN A CLEAN WELCOMING ENVIRONMENT. I ALSO APPRECIATED THE FIRST GRADE COMBINATION. THE PRINCIPAL HAS GREAT CHARACTOR AND STRONG EXPECTAITONS OF EVERY STAFF MEMBER. HER KINDESS SHOWS THROUGH. TAKE A VISIT OR TOUR YOU WILL SEE WHAT I MEAN.
