Think of your dream Y5's - 8th grade school. Great education, teachers, and lunches. If you ignore the lunches, hands-down the best school I've ever gone to. All the teachers are the nicest human beings I have ever met and all of them want you to succeed. Most importantly, all the students are taught to love one another. The atmosphere and children are extremely welcoming, and a friend will be made in the first two weeks MAX. The school is split into 3 main hallways, Y5's - 2nd grade, 3rd - 5th grade, and 6th - 8th grade. Each hallway gets you ready for the next one, and 8th grade gets you ready for high school. As a graduating student of 2023, I can gladly say this is one of the best schools you can take your children to. 10/10. Take my advice, this is the school that you are looking for.

Great school where your kids can learn and grow. Strong morals and ethics that support the children and their way of being. A place where your kids can learn and grow and you can find family.

I have loved this school for my kids. While I do wish the kids got more outside time and maybe some more electives like cooking or a stem class/building class. I have loved the teachers and the staff.
