Staff and principal are amazing. My child has attended this school for over 3 years. The teachers are well qualified and go above and beyond to educate their students. Lots of programs available including arts, drama, music and Spanish. Before and after school care programs and extra curricular activities available.

This is a true Elementary School. Many schools are K-8 and over populated to cut down on budget. We love this school for so many reasons. Moved just to be at this school.

This school is the best! The staff is amazing and I am thrilled with the education my kids receive. My children are challenged but supported. My children are given academic rigor mixed with amazing arts experiences. Can't believe this is a public school!
