It's dawning on us now that our Pierce experience is over, and the six years just flew by. This isn't just a school, it's a community - and the school principal and staff make it so. We have been happy with our experience.

Nice neighborhood school and involved parents. Teachers are good. Student to teacher ratio high with no teaching assistants.
