School Reviews

5   3/31/2022
What I love about our school is an amazing education! Our administration is open to communication to discuss what works best for kids. They have worked with us for our child that has a 504 and IEP and made accommodations to help her. I love the small family environment and small class sizes. I love that a uniform is not required but a dress code that has helped my kids stay modest well into high school. The curriculum is advanced. The school starts the next grade after winter break so this is an advanced non-profit charter school.
