My son has been in this school for several years he is not in First Grade and I feel very satisfied with the level of education he is receiving but more importantly with the love and affection the staff gives him. Even when he had had difficulty with a subject they have taken the extra time to help and tutor him to get ahead...he will be there until Fifth Grade.
