This is a great school with lots of parental involvement. The best thing is the caring staff and great leadership. The teachers go the extra mile to assure your child gets what they need. I have enjoyed the overall feel of the environment as it is a strong community full of great people. There is plenty to get involved with and the people are welcoming. The children feel the positive vibes put off by staff and parents. A very conducive environment for learning. I feel they have given my child a really good start in life both academically and socially.
Great school overall. High socioeconomic level and high degree of parent involvement. Dozens of PTA committees. Huge school library. Exacting standards-- any child not 100% on grade level is given extra help. Teachers are generally willing to diffentiate curriculum for more advanced learners. Many children who were at the top of their classes elsewhere will have to do remeial work to catch up. Downside-- there is some subliminal pressure to 'keep up with the Joneses.' Be prepared to spend a lot on clothes and birthday party gifts.
