Thurston elementary is absolutely amazing school. I was very happy with the attentiom and care my kids had. For the past three years, every teacher had surpassed my expectation. After experiencing four other schools, thurston has been the best out of them. Even after changing the principal, thurston maintained its standard of teaching.
