My student loves it there she struggles with sitting still and the teachers and staff are patient with her. The important thing is that she is excited about school.

I am so happy that we found this school. It is exactly the community I was looking for, for my son and my family. Parents are encouraged (and expected) to be involved in classroom activities and school-wide activities. My son is valued for the individual that he is. Each teacher knows him by name. His K-1 class has a guaranteed 14:1 teacher-student ratio. Because of the small class size, the kids have really built a family at the school. They have a class pet (a cat!), celebrate birthday parties, go on monthly field trips (We have already gone to Mt. St. Helens, OMSI and bowling!). In the winter the kids can choose from Skiing/snowboarding on Mt. Hood or Ice Skating at Lloyd Center. In the spring they do swimming lessons at the pool. These are opportunities that my kids wouldn't find at another school in this area.
