Again because it is a small school and they do so much learning in the classroom extracurriculurs are not that important to me as the parent. I get those elsewhere. But they have comics clubs, mad science, mine craft. Probably even more for the older kids. and Art 4 life is great after and before care.

This is a k-5 elementary small charter school. There are not those kids of sports facilities available but we love the morning movement and recess.

The school is small so obviously it doesn't have the large scale facilities of a large school. But I feel they have everything they need.
