Very nice neighborhood school. My child spent her KG year here and she was very happy every day. The communication between teachers and parents was very effective. My child got bully once and it was handled well. Teachers really care and want to help kids learn and grow.

My daughter has progressed very well since being enrolled in the pre-k at this school. The staff and counselors have been in step with us all year and have done a fine job of working with her and her IEP. I have nothing but good things to say about the school and it's staff.
