I was nervous moving to a small town, as everyone knows everyone and wondered if this would reflect as a hindrance for my oldest in Kinder. When they started school, they were immediately welcomed, and the last 2 years have been phenomenal. Teachers have been transparent in what they teach, what children may need assistance with, and the plan to get them where they need to be. My child has truly excelled here! Definitely recommend, especially families of young ones.
