GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
I have two children who have been at this school for a total of nine years combined. Each of their teachers has been committed to keeping them challenged and advancing. The administration is friendly and engaging. Many parents volunteer to read or participate in various projects increasing the community feel to the school. The music program is outstanding. We are very happy to have this treasure of a school in our neighborhood.
