I am a worker at the school. It is currently under construction. The staff are the nicest ever. The principal and vice principal are great leaders who are exports in the child wellness specialty. The students are kind, caring, loving, and athletic. Overall a great school. I want to have children just so they can go to this school.

The student population offers diversity in itself. There are students of each race & religion present in the school. The students have demonstrated an acceptance of each other and this has fostered a healthy curiosity about each other. There are always those few who show intolerance but it is swiftly dealt with by the administration and staff.

It has been a wonderful experience for my child at this school. Teachers have gone above and beyond to support students that have the motivation to learn and improve. The staff is very friendly and effective at teaching students to be respectful and kind. Bullying is not tolerated.

This school is one of the best school I have been to. It has been annoying with all of the construction but we can live. The teachers here are the best and I recommend highly to go here.
