School Reviews
5 8/20/2019
I attended this school preschool-3rd grade before moving down south. It was an amazing school, and all the teachers were super nice. especially Mr. O''Callaghan (apologies if I spelled it wrong). I would have been part of the 2019 graduating class if they still go all the way through 6th grade. I hope all the students currently attending have just as great of an experience as I had!
