School Reviews

My child began here last year in pre-k-3, and I was astounded at the level of involvement from para-professional classroom assistants right through to administration. Everyone at the school strives to create a personal relationship with the students, and take time assist, praise, and show children how to succeed. The ideas of "community" are always at the forefront, and my child loves attending school here.
