As a current parent, I just can't brag enough about this school. WOW. What an awesome, awesome place. The saying is, 'It takes a village to raise a child', this school--'this village'--is definitely doing all the right things. My children are young, but I cannot wait to watch them grow and learn here. They've got an UNBELIEVABLE arts program--GET THIS--FREE String ORCHESTRA, four days a week starting in KINDERGARTEN! The kids are so musically talented, it blows my mind. Drama programs begin in sixth grade--we are talking BROADWAY-QUALITY Musicals. And the academics--I can't say enough, again. Last year's eighth grade students read Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice, all the advanced literature. Sciene Faires, Mathalons, school-wide Spelling Bee--What more could you ask for? The academics are stellar, and the list of high schools and colleges students attend afterwards is impressive and exhaustive. FOUR WORDS: ENROLL YOUR KID NOW.

Not a good school as far has reasonable excpectations for the childrens age group. They expect your child to be a genius.
