Our son has been at the school for two years. He has had a great time since joining. His reading skills have improved greatly. We love the community, teachers and wide range of activities that are available after school.

The school has a litany of problems. They have no bullying policy, and when children are bullied nothing is done to correct the issue. The administration favors children from more affluent backgrounds, and loves to portray that they are a welcoming academic institution.

P.S. to the misinformed person yes the CHURCH will be closed as of 07/01/2020 but the school will still be here and will grow and flourish as our children that attend the school will
