This school is great on the outside looking in. However I am a parent of a child with special needs and since my daughter has been attending this school there are numerous things that I have an issue with. Number one disciplinary actions are not dolled out equally to all students. It appears if minority students and students with disabilities are not treated the same. As a parent, if your child goes here you will need to ensure you stay involved and advocate for your child. With a system that is already set up for failure its sad that some of the people working with our children in an educational environment do the bare minimum and allow their own personal biases to effect an innocent childs success.

I'm a former student. I went to school here from kindergarten through 4th grade in 2004-2010. I remember the staff being amazingly involved and students had many activities to be involved in such as the infamous snow ball dance. I had a very good education especially in the 2nd & 3rd grade. Many memorable field trips were planned and I'd recommend it to anyone!

This school was fantastic for my two kids. The teachers, staff and administration strive to create a safe respectful environment. They found ways to keep my kids engaged with support in and out of their classrooms. I can't recommend this school enough!

I was a student here from 1964 thru 1970. Thanks to the great Faculty and support staff. All the way to the janitor. A very kind gentleman, though I am unsure of his name now, his image and kindness are with me daily. Thank you Sincerely, Brad J Cantrell.
