i live right down the road from this school so my family has easy access to the school so transportation is not a prob. the teachers are like 2ND parents to us . however they could notify us of missing assignments a little quicker.

Great school, Principle greats the children every morning.Teachers are helpful. I would really like more feed back when work is not being turned in instead of waiting after a week or 2 has passed. other than that my child loves the school and most of all he is excelling.
