School is really a nice atmosphere for children, Small student to teacher ratio, so the teachers do spend extra time with stupents. A minus is the programs for kids that are needing extra help and more help learning. Programs for children having problems in areas are no available like in larger school systems. I have a child that needs reading skills help and there are no programs to really help her learn or catch up.
