And most importantly, they not only understand that kids don't come from a cookie cutter, but they encourage individuality and embrace it. The teachers and staff always make the time for any questions or concerns I have. And to top it of, security is taken personally. Teachers know the parents and kids by sight, even if the kids don't go to their class. And there are so many teachers out during dismissal, they notice everything. Read less

Every morning the teachers and staff are outside waving to parents and greeting the children as they walk to school or get off a bus.

If you want to see what a pristine, fun, parent and child friendly elementary looks like, this is the one to visit.
