Sycamore Hills is a fantastic school! I have three children, two of them went k-5, my youngest is in 1st grade, I’ve never had an issue with any of staff, I love and trust all of them. It’s like a little family there. I wouldn’t want to send my kids anywhere else. They were provided help and accommodations when they were needed. The teachers are dedicated to helping the students learn and succeed. I even have a little trouble maker and have never had an issue with behavior policies.
