Excellent school. I feel that Somme of what is written in the scores doesn't match my own experience at this school. Parent support is very high at this school too. I can only say that the entire experience here has been great.

"There are many dog owners walking around the area and all are friendly, dog and owner alike. A nicely kept walking path by the mission hills apartments with dog waste bags and garbage spots is a good route to walk. I would say about 90% of owners walk with dogs on a leash."
