School Reviews

I love this school! It is warm and friendly. I like that it is a small school so you get to know the office staff, teachers, other kids and parents. The classes are small as well, which is nice. It is a very loving environment. My kids have really flourished. They came to this school shy and without confidence, and they have changed because of the love and guidance of all the people involved with the school. I leave the kids at school without any worries.
