I love this school. More importantly, my children love this school. The teachers and administrators are friendly and respectful. The atmosphere is healthy and the activities are fun. I highly recommend this school to everyone in the community. One of the best run schools I have ever been associated with.

Well this morning was their first day back to school, I also learned today that they held my daughter back and didn't tell me. I was told if she scored good on the liberty writes and pulled her grades up she would pass well she done both. And its like a slap in the face to be lied to by people that act like they have your childs interest at heart, I'm seriously thinking about transferring them to blountstown school. Her last report card didn't mention she was being retained and I missed open house cause I was at the hospital with my sister. So I guess it was the ultimate surprise to a new school year
