The PTSA program is one of the most organized and engaged groups I have seen in a school. The amount of activities the school puts on for the kids every month, organizes dinners/outings at restaurants and ice cream shops around the area, and big dances & events throughout the year is a great way of keeping the community tied into school.

Poor. I wish I had never sent my child to this school. I am hopeful that with new Princile the approach will be different. For us is too late to find out.
