School Reviews

My experience at this school has been wonderful. The teachers truly care about the kids and will work overtime just to help them. The middle school has been amazing. Yes, it is hard work. Yes, there is always drama. But the last I heard, that is what puberty is all about. The opportunities the middle school offers in their elective program is very diverse and meets many different children's interests. The principal is a child advocate and expects a lot from the teachers. This is why most of the teachers are very good at what they do. The sense of community is improving and the faith based religion and evangelization has taken a turn for the better. My kids are very happy there and we appreciate this school. I have talked to MANY people who feel the same way and discuss how this school is far better than most of the schools in the city. I am proud to be a member at this school.
