Our child attends this small school on the Roslindale/West Roxbury border. The environment is warm and caring and orderly. Literacy is the school's strong suit. Students also get science and music instruction. Math instruction seems to need improvement, as is the case in most Boston Public Schools. Bottom line: our child is very happy here and is eager to go to school each day. We have confidence in the school and the education our child is receiving and hope to send our younger child here in a couple of years. Note: it is hard to get assigned a seat at this school unless you apply for K1 (age 4).
