(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - This school is fantastic and the principal is outstanding. The teachers have time to work with kids and make sure they understand the lessons. My child stopped thriving in another school, so I transfered my child to VES and my child started thriving again! The teacher had time to work with my child and even brought up the fair test grade from 53% to 82% in the short amount of time working with my child.The best school with geniune caring staff and i highly recommend this school to anyone!
