4/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageMy children learned a fair amount. Pleased with their progress. However, be prepared to have the teachers pick 2 or 3 class pets and they are the ones that get recognized for everything they do, and they can do no wrong every year from 1-8...doesn't matter if these kids are hateful to the other kids. These chosen few will have their pics in the hallways the most, in the yearbook the most, "help" the teachers the most, get every award, etc. Guess you can expect that in a small town somewhat...Just seems excessive here!Parent Review10y ago
