Durham

The teachers, the principal and the vice principal really care and create a culture that is so welcoming and wholesome for the kids. I feel very lucky that my daughter can go here.

Our son is now in 1st grade and we love this school. At the end of Kindergarten the students were able to read in 2 languages, write paragraphs in 2 languages and count over 100 in 2 languages. There are a lot of interventions to help kids who are having difficulties and for kids who are advanced adding another language is a great way to challenge them. The school uses positive behavior systems to encourage positive behavior and in the classroom the kids are supported not criticized or ridiculed. They implemented a plan to decrease playground fights and essentially eliminated it. This school is amazing, the principal, the teachers, the support staff, even the custodians are all amazing and enthusiastic about their jobs and their school. I am english dominant, but totally appreciate that this school allows spanish dominant parents the opportunity to really know what their kids are doing as everyone who works here is biliterate.
