Open Quote WE LOVE Sandra Thompson School, We had our son in Bozart Elementary School and I would take Sandra Thompson any day, the school is cleaner, the principle is out of this world, the office staff is amazing ( and I do have to comment on Suzie, OMG WE LOVE HER, so polite and very very helpful, the office staff from day one has made us feel as if we are family. We had an issue this year and the school went out of their way to make sure all would be ok. The teachers so far has been outstanding and they seem to put a lot of their off time into assignments. I love the communications I have with everyone in the school concerning my son.
This should be a 5 Star School just on staff alone.
I also want to send a HUGE THANKYOU to the transportation service for their amazing assistance this year on making sure all the children that rode the bus got home safely. You all are the best and I tip my hat to you all.

I sign this with pride!! Close Quote
