I really enjoy the fact that the kids are exposed to a lot of different things that the would not normally be introduced to. Mrs. Lo is a smart person and can interact with the kids like they are her own. I love the curriculum and the spiritual parts about the school. My kid did not want to go to another school once he started this one. Thank you ADWA

My daughter attended this school and she was prepared for college. She got many scholarships offers when she graduated. She enjoyed her time there because the staff took the time to help and they welcomed her with open arms.

I am so elated that I found this school. My daughter is doing a great job now that she's in a smaller setting. Her grades have gone up tremendously and I can see her progress. The teachers are patient and they make sure the students understand their work before moving forward. Thumbs up to this private school!!
