In a small town school you cannot complain about much. The staff is all amazing and the atmosphere is calm and collective. Everyone knows each other and we all just have a lot of fun.

This is a smaller school so more one on one time. The teachers are always willing to take time out of their day to help you in anyway necessary. Good communication with parents as well.
