Great school with a lot of focus on STEM education. Teachers and staff are very friendly and ensure optimum teacher to student ratio. Character building and kindness are two strong pillars of this school and kids are rewarded for being kind and nice with fellow students. PTO is very active and plays...

My daughter did well in her studies and at this school; with the school now having a new principal and the school district a new superintendent, I’m positive the school and the district will continue to develop successful students.

Each year, K-3, my son had a fantastic experience at this school. All of the teachers went out of their way to truly get to know him and challenge him accordingly. It was an excellent experience.
