I have three children in all different grades and this is the worst school they have attended. The staff is terrible, the teachers are very difficult to work with, and the nurse is very incompetent. I had to move because of the way we were treated!

The principal and the teachers are very dedicated to our students, we could not have a better faculty. Our PTSA does a wonderful job to keep enjoyment for our students as well as helping in every way they can. It is a small but tight community and we all care what happens in our school. It is simply the best....

My all of my grandchildren (4)have been students, two graduated, and 2 more will be graduating. Also, our great-grandchild attends. Having come from a suburban, NY area, I am extremely impressed with the level of education, and the performance of both teachers and students. This is a school that should be commended for its dedication to its pupils.

I love the fact that the classes are small and the children get the attention they need. There is also a lot of parent involvement,which is nice to see.
