Posted January 11, 2006

The availablity to music, art, sports, and other activites is about equal to all other schools for this age group. The parents are involved but being that it is a small commuity where alot of moms stay at home it is difficult for a parent to work to get involved since she is not around all the time and can not keep up on everything going on. The academics is good and the teachers and staff are great. They seem to care about the kids just don't point out the fact that they did something wrong because they are quick to sweep it under the rug and will begin to avoid you as much as possible.
