The school management doesn't know the meaning of diversity, dealing with colored or different cultures students as same as native students, they don't provide classroom diversity environment or school building diversity, dealing with different cultures as they have disabilities , only couple teachers are giving the students welcoming filling rather than that it is fake feeling our kids and we as parents get it.

Having two young children attend here I cannot say enough with how positive of an experience it has been. The teachers are top notch, the school is tucked away and well kept. Feels almost like a private school truthfully.

My Son was having difficulty with reading. His teacher put so much effort into working with him that we could not thank her enough. He is now reading above his grade level.

The staff is amazing! My son just finished his first year at the school and we have absolutely no complaints. From the Administration to the staff all the way to the PTA. The amount of effort put forward is fantastic.
