Really wonderful staff there and very supportive regarding the needs for our son. Very proactive. We have just moved here from Hoboken and love the location of Madison as well as the community. The teachers call us before school starts and asks us about our kids. I love the principal as well. Mr. Liss is fantastic with the kids. You can see how much they want them to succeed.
