Monday, April 11, 2011

Numbers never tell a whole story. The teachers, staff and parents are all heavily involved at the school and the result is everyone knows everyone else and cares about everyone else. I have 4 children that are in or finished with Lafayette and I don't believe I could buy, for any amount of money, a better preparation for middle school and life than what Lafayette provides.
