  • What a wonderful school. From Ms. Reis the principal (who is awesome) right down to the teachers, everyone cares about our kids. Even though we could choose to send our kids elsewhere, we would not.

  • Jill Reis is one of the BEST Principals (besides John Tignor) Knowing all of the children, parents and sibblings by name. Very concerned with the overall wellbeing of her students and teachers.
    The teachers are the BEST in the district! Parent communication is outstanding. Extra attention is given to struggling students in study groups. More independance and challenges are given to children who exceed academic expectations.
    Lynn Scholtz the councelor has an overwelming desire to make sure that the children suceed in anything they face at school and at home. She also is in charge of the drama club and other extracurricular activities (fundraisers/toys for tots/pictures). She appears to be very organized even with all of the duties she has undertaken.
    The lunch staff are pheonominal! Knowing students and families by name. Quick responses on programs available.
    The Janitorial staff make sure that the school stays fresh and clean. Mr. Jay and Mr. Terry keep a good watch out for kids before/during/after school.
    Shiela Benz is the greatest school nurse anyone could ask for. She keeps medical issues private from persons not involved. She is a Nurse/Mom/Theripist/Councelor type person, very profession yet down to earth.
    Miss Kelly the security guard knows the children, parents and helps the teachers with special projects. Whitty and understanding. An overall Great person.
    This school teaches individuality, independance, safety, kindness, trust, respect, uniqueness and love for people, nature, environment, cultures and self worth.
