This is an outstanding school! The teachers are constantly interacting with the parents and students striving to better and do what is right. The teachers beginning in Kindergarden started working with my child and noticed some differences in his behavior and learning. With their help, he went from some F's to all A's and B's. Simply wonderful. God has blessed many teachers here and I constantly pray for their continued blessedness!!!!!!!

I wish there is music and arts available, sports and extracurricular activities at this school. I also think the level of parent involvement is very low if the past two meetings attendance is any indicator. I also think parents shouldn't be late to meetings what does this teach children? Parent involvement is very important and i was surprised to see so few parents at the parent - teacher meeting this past week, which was for the childs-parent benefit to see how the children are doing and to receive the childrens Dibels test scores.
