They have a Jr. Beta Club (National club with high educational standards) and other clubs to help keep your child engaged and motivated to keep learning. Teachers listen, and are receptive. I wanted to ensure the Constitution was being taught at a level our child would understand and retain the knowledge. That teacher actually specifically studied The Constitution while getting her degree. I'm grateful for every teacher our child has had for the 3 year's we've been here.The principal and administration is very proactive when it comes to safety. They call weekly to inform us of what's going on. The school has family/ community cookouts and movie nights thank our child loves to goto. We highly recommend looking into the school if you're interested in moving to the area. It's been a great experience for us and our children.

"Stuart is a quiet small rural town in the mountains (think Mayberry :), and just beautiful views of the mountains everywhere. It's only a few minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway where we've taken advantage of loads of hiking trails, biking, and fishing. Stuart has a local park within walking distance of our house, and there is a great biking trail nearby - the New River Trail which is a "Rail to Trail" that allows horses as well as bicycles. Personally, we were looking for peace and serenity, and have a mountain creek in our back yard with little rapids and big rocks! We'll take that over nightlife any day of the week. Which brings me to the categories that I recommended for the area. I didn't include singles because of the nightlife thing, but from the standpoint of sports type activities, I might should have included them. I've walked a couple of trails and came to the conclusion that they were definitely for the young! "
