Friday, September 14, 2012

This school is amazing! From the teachers to the principal and admin people, to the activities and PTO/volunteer parents, all are top notch people. Everyone goes beyond the necessary or expected degree of being friendly, welcoming and helpful. I've moved four times in the past 10 years and my three kids have been in four schools, including two private. This school outshines all of them. My kids are so happy and that means mama's happy! Most importantly, they are doing so well academically. There extra programs are amazing, music, sports, arts, etc. I was surprised to find the transportation so organized; there is an early bus and a late bus for all these extra activities. Close Quote
