School Reviews

This school has change in the best possible way from when I was a child attending the school. It seems the teacher care more and the adminstration is much more receptive when dealing with the children and parents. Your child is not just a #. If your child needs help, decipline, or is excelling well they will call you in for round table session, phone cofference, and anything nessary to get your kid to the next level. I would recommend this school to others.
