I transferrred jobs and had to relocate my daughter. I chose Springadle due to its low teacher/student ratio. My daughter loves it there, and so do I. She is very happy with the teachers, principal, and students. One of the first things she told me was, 'Momma, there are no bullies in my class now.' I am so thankful. She is also doing excellent academically. There is constant communication between parents and teachers. I couldn't ask for a better school.

I have found this school to be a very good place for my second grader. The teachers that my child has had since kindergarten have been very caring. The level of education seems to be better than some of the other public schools in this area and I have found the principal to be very up to date on issues of obtaining funds for the school, it's teachers and students. Overall, we are very pleased with Springdale.
