So far, this school has proved to be a good place for my 2nd grader. He recently got selected to attend the gifted student program. Teacher attention and encouragement contributed to it. Thanks.

The WESTEST 2 is a standards-based test, which means it measures specific skills defined for each grade by the state of West Virginia.
