This campus / facility is outstanding! The technology in the school, the smart classes and other brand new computer and Apple products not only expand the quality of this place but create a competitive edge in the curriculum. Visiting fro ma grant-writing agency I was happy to observe classrooms with exceptionally qualified teachers and very engaged students. The curriculum including dance classes, Spanish lessons, and a myriad of after-school programs along with onsite counselors make this school simply wonderful.

The principal has been there, from what I remember, about 20 years and her leadership and kindness were evident. As a Catholic elementary school that welcomes all peoples, the hospitality of the staff and excellent teachers along with the challenging academic programs make this a wonderful place of learning and I'd recommend it to anyone in the area.
