Outstanding Principal who is highly engaged with students and parent community. Teachers who go above and beyond for all learners.

Superb school that has almost everything a school could ask for. PTO provides almost anything that the school doesn't receive funding for in general. Every student has an iPad and the supports they need. School sits in the middle of a very affluent community that wants/needs for nothing. Not as dive...
