My daughter has attended since kindergarten and is now in 4th grade. My son attended 7 & 8 grade. My niece and nephews also went to this school from k-8. My older children attended other city schools and this by far has been the best experience. I drive 20 miles a day to take my kids to the best school around. The staff is excellent, the children and parents are wonderful. The staff truly care for their students. Its not all just about the numbers here. They build life long relationships and inspire the children to exceed. My daughter has achieved honor roll every year.
