Florence School is very friendly, open, and willing to help. Everyone in Florence School knows each other from Pre-K through 12 which makes my school very unique. My favorite part about my school is homecoming when you get to see the kids that don't do sports help the kids that do sports with everything from the floats to cooking to the homecoming dance. It's always a blast at Florence School even in your worst days.
