I love how the school and teachers instill the love of learning and hard work on their students. I would like to see this school expanding their space since it's a little small and maybe offer a wider variety of sports and other after school activities. Another great asset to this school is that they start working with a Counselor on 7th grade to help them pick the best High School suited to their career goals if they already know what they want to become and this Conselours follow them through all the way to College.

This school is amazing it has helped me be accepted in a great private high school on scholarship. They gave me skills which I use today.
