The school is thriving with the new principal, she has introduced new clubs like dance team and is actually taking part in them. Computers have been introduced in the classroom and my kids are loving it. Overall the schools vibe has gotten much better, teachers can now directly communicate with us parents through certain programs and things like honors have come back. Im very excited, these changes in administration have really paid off!
