I am a mom of 5-year-old twins that I have been sending to Archbishop Borders School for the past 2 years and we absolutely love the school! I know my children are safe, well cared for and receiving the best learning instruction. We are always greeted with a smile by the Principal and Vice every morning at drop-off. It truly makes a difference to have such warm and compassionate leaders at the school. I highly recommend this learning facility for any parents also that want to ensure that their children learn both English and Spanish. The school also has a wonderful religion based curriculum. We are proud to be ABS Bobcats!
