This is a wonderful school! We were new to a year round track system, and they made it a smooth adjustment. The school has excellent teachers, and it's very clean and safe. I have great communication with my daughters teacher. She's struggling in a subject, and they have provided extra tutoring. I'm really happy with the district thus far.
