Nearly 100% of it's students come from the lower socioeconomic neighborhoods surrounding the school. Some would think because of this there would behavior problems running rampant. But it's the opposite. These kids are excited about school. It's amazing to see that in such young children coming from rough homes. I think it's partly due to their new principal. She has just as much vigor as these students. I see nothing but great things in the future for this school. Keep it up! Close Quote
