Open Quote I have two children at Lake Como and have been very happy. It is a small school, which I love, because it allows me to be very involved and know all the staff and faculty. The school is very welcoming, unlike some of the bigger schools. It has been an A rated school for the last 3 years. More and more neighborhood children are coming to this school as well, which will help keep it getting even better! The teachers are all very dedicated and have such a pride for the school. They have school tours in the spring, which really helped make our decision easy to enroll! Close Quote
