Nice clean school, but the school's challenge programs are very poor. Children who excel in there studies are left bored and the parents are told it's because of the 'No child left behind' act. No child should be discriminated against whether they struggle or exceed in their learning capabilities. Just wished they focused some attention on the students that are above levels :o(

I strongly reccomend this school to every parent. The teachers take time with each individual child. I have two children enrolled there and even though i was offered a signifigant raise to relocate i fuse to due to the quality of Hull Sanford Elementary
