My son has been very happy with the afterschool program and has learned sign language from it. I am amazed at the amount of spanish my native english speaking son has learned in his two years. I wish there were more amenities, such as a science room or a gym, however the curriculum makes up for what the building lacks. I would recommend this school, particularly to parents who would like their children to learn a second language fluently. Read less

We have been given immediate response to any kind of subject we needed to (which we didn't had at all in the previous public school my son attended).
