School Reviews
5 8/20/2012
my family moved here over a year ago and my grandchildren go to Woodford Hollow school. They have had more art, music, sports and class participation than any other school they have been in. The school is small so the children get more attention from the teachers. My grandchildren have never been more happy in school than they are in this one. They do their homework without being told..and this is most definitely something new.
