My son has excelled at Bliss Elementary School thanks to caring teachers like Mrs. Weir and Mrs. Sernas. I pulled him out of private school to attend Bliss and am happy with that decision. He has had PE each day which he enjoyed as well as art and music. He has learned Spanish while attending Bliss and his grades have risen. The school has a small school feel and teachers are both attentive and caring with gentle yet firm discipline, a winning combination in my opinion.
- What did you like? I like the caring teachers.
