The amazing staff at Reagan - from the principal to the cafeteria and janitorial personnel are, in my opinion, considerably responsible for the incredible success of the school. I don't want to leave out the invaluable assistance of the VIPs and room mothers, along with every other family member who steps up to the plate when necessary. While Reagan does have exceptionally gifted students, these children would not thrive anywhere else - the attention focused on them at Reagan will be the first of their stepping stones to a bright future. I am eternally grateful for all the staff at Reagan - past and present - who have such a positive impact on their students. GO REAGAN ALL STARS!!! Close Quote
