This is only a good school for kids that already get everything the first time. They fall flat for kids with disabilities. Their scores stay high because these families leave. They pretended not to receive my child's documented disabilities and did not provide him with his legally entitled free and public education. He is now scoring 3 grades lower than hu s current grade and they keep pushing him forward. Close Quote

Excellent staff, committed parents, nurturing, professional and personalized care.
My daughter in Kindergarten writes and reads, because her teacher gives her, and each kid at class, individual attention and lets her potential flourish.
Principal is very involved, reasonable and coherent.
Community is participative and collaborative without being demanding and/or snob with parents that don't belong to PTA.
Last year, a conjunction effort by the community stopped a cell tower to be built too close to the school. Close Quote
