I liked that the teachers were willing to teach you. However, I wish that the kids would be more nicer, but only the adults can change that.

Parents are always welcomed in the school and are appreciated for our time. At any given time if I send an email to a teacher for maybe some extra help in tutoring or just general questions the email is responded to within a couple of hours. In TEAMS in 7th grade Nicole had 2 field trips to 2 Universities here in Virginia.
