There is now Peace instead of a PTA. This program is set up so much better for the children.The teachers are very helpful in every way.
—Submitted by suzette decker, a parent


Posted May 31, 2006

Academic programs are fine, but the children seem very 'fast'. There are various extracurricular programs. Teachers will give tutoring after school which is a definite plus. PTA has low membership due to parent apathy.
