My child went through this school and through the entire school system. Truly, this school was by far his favorite (mine too)! He felt safe, challenged, and cared for here. This school is top-notch!

My son is in his firs year at this school . He and I both are extremely happy with the teachers, staff, principal, and how we are treated at functions. This school is why we love our little town and the sense of security it gives us.
