School Reviews
5 10/9/2020
We are very impressed with this school. They seem to put an emphasis on learning the basics first, have good teachers that are easily accessible if there is a problem, they know the families of their students and they teach discipline in the classroom. Students are very polite and well behaved. They also appear to get along well with each other. Finally, Father Graham is wonderful, the kids love him.
