I have taught at several elementary schools and this school is by far the best! The teachers genuinely care about the students! This school has so many teachers with masters or multiple masters degrees. These teachers really do know their stuff and care about their kids. Being downtown there are a lot of students that go in and out of this school due to moving and custody issues. So, student population changes often.
