I do not have a child that goes to this school. I am from Texas but my hisband traveled up there to do sandy relief for work to build a temp school he was gone about a month. Anyway he enjoyed everyone from this school bored.... The community was great!! He said its one of the best jobs he's done. Being out side a big city he was shocked how right nit the town was.
