Great school that treats the students like family. All the teachers go that extra mile to help the students. Principle Kelly Clark is amazing!! Our kids love this school & so do we. The staff is amazing!! Everyone from the principle, teachers, office staff, cooks & custodians are great! I didn't think schools like this existed still but Akin School is proof that they do.
