The secretaries and others at the school will quickly learn who you are if you are at all active with the school and you will always be warmly greeted. If you get the right teachers, your child will excel. The lack of a gifted program is unfortunate and the services for special education I have found to be OK other parents rave about them.

I disagree with with the parent who said they are 'behind the times'. It is an excellent school and my child has received all the resource help he has needed. His classroom teacher was wonderful. The school and staff are A+ in my book!
