The teaching that my daughter was given was pretty mediocre. I didn't find that it was worth moving to the town for as I thought the reputation of the schools were supposedly good. My daughter also experienced a lot of relational bullying and passive aggression.

My child was new to the school this year and has been warmly welcomed by all. Teachers are very responsive to parents.

The diversity is increasing in the town but the town needs to address the bullying problem toward the students that are new or different.

The school needs more rigor and a supportive learning for all children. My child did not feel emotionally safe at this school.

School quality of instruction is a little below average. Bullying occurs too often, especially towards kids that might be different.
