School Reviews
5 4/21/2008
My son has been in this school for the past two years and it is the best thing that has ever happened to us. The teachers are awesome and sincerely care about the students. They treat them as equals, not as under achievers or as kids who don't deserve their time or attention. They are still in need of some programs that most other schools take for granted but they are working hard on catching up with everyone else. As with all schools, the parential involvement depends on the parent and how much they want to get involved, but in this school, there are so few kids that you actually feel like you can make a difference by getting involved and it makes you want to do more of it. You also have more one-on-one time with the teachers if you like because they not only take the time to meet with you, they really care about what you want and your child.
