Great people overall. The staff and the administration at this school are there because they love teaching. My kid wakes up happy about school. Though he loves he breaks at home he never complains about having to go back to school which says a lot. The school is fairly new with a large military kid population so the test scores aren''t a real indicator of just how good this school is just yet but I''m sure that will change if it isn''t already outdated. The kids at this school are outmatched by a staff who has raised and still has kids at the school their ages so they are all fully vested in the school and it shows.
