My son has spent three years at this school, and he loves it and loves his friend, he is in 5th grade this year, and the teacher gives him a fair amount of school assignments that prepare him for the Middle school upgrade.

Laurel Hill got my two military children back on track with school. They did such a great job my daughter is in AP level IV classes and my son loves school again.
