We love the principal and the family nights and the giant push for readimg and the emphasis on good character. It might not be the prettiest building, but seriously dont judge a book by its cover here. We had Ms. Conran for kindergarten. Pray your child gets a teacher like her. Then we have had our socks knocked off by the nurturing, lovely Ms. Johnson. Ms Golm is so sweet the kids don't realize how rigorous the class is, they just LOVE her. My daughter wants to be a scientist because of her - so a big thank you there. Growth mindset and character are number 1 In our house, so I was impressed to see and hear it in the hallwalls , in the art work and writing that comes home - my daughter's superpower she wrote about was her ability to persevere. I seriously love this school.
