(5 / 5) Flag as inappropriate - My daughter attended this school in Pre-k and we both absolutely loved it. The teachers and staff were great and the environment and material was top-notch. Unfortunately we had to move. But now that we are moving back two years later, I am making sure to be in the district so she can go back to this school that she misses so much. I'm very picky about school, and I LOVE my child here.
