What people are saying

by a parent
Tuesday, July 24, 2012

Before sending our children here, we checked out the 2 closest school districts as well. Our kids have been attending here for 3+ years now and they not only love the school but also the community. Here's what we love:
Low teacher/student ratio. Very supportive staff. Teachers who take the time to understand and get to know their students and families. Art class, music class and band are all offered (art is not offered at any other elementary school within a 45 mile radius, band is offered at some other schools but not all). Excellent 5th and 6th grade set up called a 5/6 hive in which the teachers all work together and students get a chance to move from room-room to learn various subjects. Excellent 5th and 6th grade science, math and reading programs. They have recieved some of the highest scores in the state for the mandated 5th grade science test. Kindergarten has less than 20 students per teacher plus a full-time assistant. Close Quote
