Learning team is top notch. Great curriculum, wonderful teachers, kiddo loves this school and truly feels empowered in his learning. However, absolute worst administration, be prepared for poor management, terrible organization of most everything and (generally) rude admin staff. Despite that, still worth it for kiddo.

Do not trust a school that doesn't give test scores. The visuals of the school is nice however the teaching is below average, the student accommodations are nonexistent and the school is racist. The schools main focus is the visuals and alleged "diversity" but discriminate against cultural differences and disabilities.

Fantastic administration. Incredibly communicative and welcoming. Responses are always quick and they never make you feel like you are bothering. The school is very well run.

Outstanding. Its a new school so we werent sure what we were getting into. What we found was a wonderful and caring community, teachers who were committed and effective, and a fantastic administration. Our child really flourished under the Montessori method and we saw great improvement and interest in learning at home as a result of the classroom work. The school is also beautifully diverse and inclusive.
