My daughter attended this school from PreK to 8th grade. The school needs new blood. The principal is out of touch and needs to be re-educated in new teaching techniques. Aslo, she needs to come into the 21 centruy. Children need a caring ear not lectures.... They can also do with some new teachers

And that parent that hangs out in the school all day should stay out of school business. They allow her to speak to students in a negative way which is inappropriate. I am happy my child is out of there. Read less

In November, I asked him if he thought I had made a 'bad' decision. He said, 'Mom, here the teachers care if

The subsequent years continued my belief that the financial sacrifice was worth it for the sake of my children. The excellent education, the 'basics' of good morals and values, the safeness of the environment, the nurturing and concern from the principal, the teachers, the staff and the volunteers could not have been better.
