We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

The teachers and staff at this school are second to none. Teachers go out of their way to build learning plans that are successful for each child's unique needs. I have 2 kids here, each with very different needs, and both have thrived. This school teaches children not just the elementary standards...

Mediocre at best. Special education services and support are nonexistent. There are some good teachers and staff here. There are teachers that are lacking the ability or skills to help children learn. Touting how wonderful and progressive the school is doesn't make it better than what it actually is...
