(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - My daughter goes to this school. The school takes all security measures to ensure safety of the kids. They have free lunch program for eligible kids. They take care in sending the attendence to the parents and if needed will call their parents to ensure whether they are excusable or not. This way u always knows that ur kids are going to school. Parents teacher conference are wonderful. U can judge what ur kids need improvement in? Parents meeting is awesome. Parents will exchange their views and if needed are implemented. My daughter teacher Mr. Shropshire is really a wonderful person. He assisted every kid while writing journals without getting tired. The principal, Ms. King really takes lots of care to make this school a better and safe place for kids.
Overall, its an excellent school for our little loved ones.
