7/10GreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageI graduated a few years ago and I absolutely loves this school. I went k through 8th and I built some sort of connection with every single teacher and staff member. All of the teachers are super caring and I enjoyed the small class sizes. The teachers do an excellent job in teaching and much more. I always felt engaged in learning and the lessons being taught. I was also well prepped for high school. The teachers are also such nice people inside and outside of the classroom. I was always able to go to them I'd I had a question or if I just wanted to talk about life.Other Review1y ago - William L Thompson School
