Stanley is such a great school. The Principal is great with the students and staff. It is really great seeing a principal who knows your children and is very involved. Our child attended kindergarten last year and first grade this year. She has had a great two years here. I love the hand's on learning she is receiving. I really feel that my child is getting an education that is based on what she needs. I feel that there is a great balance on education and testing. The teacher's are very on top of what your child needs.

Stanley is a decent school. Not a lot of diversity. I dont think that the staff understands children from diverse backgrounds very well. I had to be very vigilant with my kids. We were there for 6 years and I have mixed feelings about the school.
