Parent Rating Average
Teachers are great. We feel our student is loved and safe at school. It’s close knit and just a good school. The school has increasingly enrolled more low-income students, hence the shift in test scores. But they’re still known as a good school in the community because they’ve maintained their reputation despite challenges.

"It’s a nice, quiet neighborhood. Everyone keeps to themselves but are also friendly and neighborly. Easy access to the highway, the mall, Walmart, target, the hospital... really not that bad of an area. Seems to mostly be older adults or young families. Police patrol frequently and crime is pretty low. "
