A gem! C.U. a nurturing, fertile environment for the curious child. The school provides many experiences in and outside of the classroom to match if not surpass other private schools in our area. My child will finish up this year, and we hate to leave, but they only go through 6th grade. Fabulous caring staff, many of who have been there 15 plus years.
