the teachers at this school are amazing... some of them are truly inspirational to the children. I have seen some amazing things with the success of their students. Ms. Karen (first grade teacher) and Ms. Alavisi (second grade teacher) are more than highly qualified and are professional beyond anything that I could ever dream of. Great teachers with fabulous talents with children.

Community ratings and reviews do not represent the views of GreatSchools nor does GreatSchools check their accuracy or verify the reviewers' identities. Use your discretion when evaluating these reviews.

About these ratings

The Community Rating is the school’s average rating from its community members (e.g., parents, students, and school staff). The highest possible rating is five stars; the lowest is one star.

We currently do not have any test score information for this school. Unlike public schools, private schools are not always required to report data about their schools or not required to take the same tests as public schools. Many private schools take different standardized tests; however, that information is often made available only to families of enrolled students. We strive to acquire additional private school data whenever available.
