All 3 of my children have gone or are still going to Johnson. Our oldest, now 8 and attending Fairview, began attending in kindergarten when they began the grade alike program. The program has been absolutely wonderful. The bullying happens less often. And when it does happen, it is taken care of immediately. The Child's Garden program at Johnson for preschool there is one of the best preschool programs I've seen yet. . The staff is knowledgeable and wonderful. They have made such an impression on my children and they all love going to school just to see their teachers! You couldn't ask for anything better!

"I lived in this neighborhood for 4 years and couldn’t be happier about the environment, plenty of parks to walk to in the mornings with the YMCA in walking distance. Would recommend to anyone looking for a well put together community that’s quiet. I even still own my home in the area because it’s just that great. "
