The principal (Ms. Culkin) at this school is a strong, effective, and caring leader. Even in rain or snow, you will see her outside taking care of her kids. She genuinely cares for the students and takes time out to greet/listen to them. My kids are very lucky to have someone like her as their principal. Close Quote
