Our daughter is in kindergarten at Port Royal elementary. I must say that this school is a hidden gem! She has only 13 kids in her class and 2 teachers. She loves it and is excited to go to school every day. When we drop her off, all of the teachers welcoming kids all know her name and give her a big hug. I’m shocked that it is rated as low as it is, because the building and grounds are beautiful, the kids are kind, the teachers are involved, and the student population is so small that there is great support for every child. Don’t let this rating scare you off - definitely consider this school if you are new to the area.
