GreatSchools Rating
Parent Rating Average
The teachers and staff at this school are phenomenal. They're engaged with students, nonjudgmental, patient, and well-informed on educational methods and research. One of my children needed special education services for speech therapy, and the quality of the IEP/education is top-notch. I can't say enough good things about this school.

"There’s always people walking their dogs. It’s very pet friendly. Everyone says hi and nobody has ever yelled at my dog or anyone else’s for that matter that I know of. Never met a neighbor that didn’t like my dog either. Most of the neighborhood dogs are very friendly. Any time I’m walking my dog we meet a new dog. Seems like there’s more every day"
