Overall is great school. Offers good education but I feel there's lacking of after-school programs in music, art and sports for younger students. My child is in kindergarten going to 1st grade and their are no programs available for him. Also. The diversity of students is minimal so would like to see more diverse cultures.

This school provides students with disabilities the support and accommodations they require. Teachers at this school are respectful, and supportive, and motivate their students to learn. The school also welcomes and includes families as partners in their children's learning

Strong school community. Consistently great teachers who treat students as individuals and really work hard to support them academically, emotionally, and socially. Extended school day with an hour of movement each day along with before and after school options.
