6/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageAs long as you are involved, they are accommodating. That’s what you should expect from a school. Teachers are caring, seem to try to keep kids engaged. School is managed really well. No real complaints. It’s a small town school, doing the best they can with the resources they are given. I did my research on local schools and chose this one. I’m happy with that decision.Parent Review3y ago
