Staff and administrators at Parr's Ridge are amazing. I hope to remain in this school's boundary lines for both of my children to attend there. This is the type of elementary school that I have always wanted for my children.

Classes are not too large. Teachers are caring and will work with students and parents to help each child succeed. Cannot ask for more. Close Quote
