Wonderful principal and new assistant principal... and the teachers are first rate! There are very few that could be considered 'average'. This school suffers mostly because of the Wake County School board, in my opinion... and we've been there for 5 years and have served as PTA chairs and volunteers from day 1. Like all Wake County schools, the school's hands are tied by the incomprehensible school board, by not being allowed or able to discipline appropriately and by never having enough money in the budget. Overall, this school is a GEM for Holly Springs - far better than any in the area, with the best teachers and staff around.

My son is in 1st grade and so far he has had one great teacher and one average. Overall the school does very well in keeping kids safe. I think the principal is great but have to admit that I am not too happy with the vice principal. I believe that the academics are tough but not too overwhelming. Wish there was more help for those students that are lagging behind but are not failing. I carpool because I think the transportation could use improvement. Also should let a wider area walk to school (very limited). Worried about the switch to year round though. Do not know how the transition will go the first year. I like the fact that parents can be involved as much or as little as they want without pressure. Wish they had a volunteer program to watch infants like some other local schools.

One Great teacher and one below average teacher. Principal and Assistant Principal seem disjoined and staff does there on thing.
