The principal is awesome! He knows the kids' names nad is outside every day, no matter the weather, helping kids load and unload. The level of parent involvement is very high. They have band participation available for 4th-5th graders and a gifted program for 1-5 grades. The community uses the school on weeknights and on weekends for various activities. It's a very clean school and overall, this is a great school.
