I love this school it was great for my child, but she had to move she missed it so much she was crying about it the day before she had to go to her new school. I recommend this school for kids my child has been in that school since kindergarten, and she has made many friends she also is very smart and she is going to honors in middle school so i definitely recommend it for all children.
