I love this school! It feels like a family. The teachers and parents work together to create a sense of community. The teachers know children who are not even in their classes. In the short time the school has been open, it has made such a positive impression on the entire community. The STEM focus is wonderful because the children are being challenged in such positive and engaging ways. This school is fantastic. Close Quote

Awful school they have this discipline technique that is horrific "The wall of shame" public humiliation no wonder child suicide is at an all time high with emotionally devastating practices like this still going on. Close Quote

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
