NAGreatSchools RatingParent Rating AverageThis will be my children second year with this school. I have nothing but praise for the ciruiculum, teachers, and parent liasons. Coming from the Menomonee Falls school it was a breath of fresh air to see they have similar if not better academic requirements. Also, there after school is excellent it offers homework help, dance, step, choir, etc. It's just an all around great school, not to mention it's a uniform school so it's easy on the clothing budget.Parent Review10y ago
