Amazing school! My daughter has been attending since Kindergarten and is about to finish 4th grade. Her education here has lead her to being in a gifted program - TAG, due to her testing above bench mark. Some of the “bad” reviews on here and other sites were prior to the current principal. The current principal, Mr Haber, is awesome. He is outside, rain or shine, greeting the kids each morning. He knows all of their names and he is ALWAYS at every single school event, even on the weekends. Not only does he go to every single event, he brings his family and participates in the events. He also recognizes most of the parents, too. One thing he often does is send out videos of him providing general school updates to keep parents in the loop. The staff (including counselor) have gone above and beyond to help my daughter with some issues she was having. The teachers here are nothing short of amazing, themselves. They had a recent school lockdown (due to an incident in the town, not directed at the school), which they handled so well! I’m sad to have to leave after she finishes her last year here. We will greatly miss Nike!
