School Reviews

This is an amazing school. As a former parent, it prepares students to excel in education, maturity & responsibility. Students learn compassion and kindness toward all people. Well-rounded students in all areas. Excellent music, art, and sports/physical education programs. They teach real math, history, geography, Spanish, and writing. Science is hands-on learning. They even learn cooking and crocheting. Student: teacher ratio is 12:1 in kindergarten; maximum 17 or 18:1 in all other grades. Lots of individual attention to students. Students are well prepared for their next challenge. I highly recommend this school!
