- Reviewed by Parent/Guardian on January 07, 2007
- Rating:
(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I am very pleased with my son's education that he has been getting since he has been attending for two years now. All the teachers are very good. The secretary and principal is outstanding. The school is small so everyone knows everyone. Your child is treated as an individual and not just any child.
