(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - I have a child that just finished 5th grade in this school. I am VERY impressed with how they had each student on the level he/she needed to be on instead of this "no child left behind" stuff. They gave my fifth grader a run for her money. The school food is great! They get a 100 on their scores. The only area I felt like needed improvement was the social skills of the staff. Most of the teachers made parents feel out of place, and for me that's not good....I'm very much a hands on mom.
