School Reviews
5 6/2/2023
I''ve been at this school from kindergarten - fifth, and I have to say it was by far my favorite school, currently, I''m in 6th grade and I was in the first year of Pirate Crew, the school choir, and participated in the after-school program, participated in the running club, and participated in chess club + art club, I made a lot of accepting friends and some of them were teachers! My favorite school years had to be 4th-5th- Mrs. Freeman, my fourth-grade teacher, was very kind and accepting, we would always play learning games, sing songs sometimes, and even get 10 minutes of free time if we were good the whole week. Then, Mrs. Woodrum, my fifth-grade teacher, had a great sense of humor and told jokes a lot! We could even be chaotic and she would make a joke out of it, I loved her, and hope to see her once again.
