School Reviews
5 6/1/2021
The teachers and entire staff at this school are phenomenal. Moving to a new city and school, you always have worries. Everyone (including the students) has been beyond kind to my daughter and gone above and beyond to make her feel welcome and accepted. The communication from the teachers to the parents is outstanding, I feel like I can barely keep up with it sometimes! My daughter is challenged in her classes but never feels too overwhelmed or that she can't ask for help. I feel so lucky that she ended up at this school.
